BREATHTAKING
- it's the only word that describes the gorgeous scenery enveloping
the city. Cranbrook, facing the Purcell Mountains to the
west and the Rockies to the north and east, is surrounded by
miles of lush forestry and over 100 crystal clear lakes. Cranbrook
began in 1898 with the arrival of the railway. Today it has become the
key city for this area of the province with a population of over 18,000
people serving an area of over 55,000.
Cranbrook
is a place to live as well as a place to make a living. There are incredible
choices available to our residents. Beautiful, well-designed residential
areas and parks, a host of recreational pursuits, educational opportunities
for young and old, and a growing arts and heritage sector, provide Cranbrook
with a "balance" seldom found in cities of this size. These choices should
make just about anyone feel at home.
The
average age of our community is only 28, but there are also a wide range
of facilities and services for seniors, Additionally, Cranbrook has
more sunshine hours annually than any other place in the province. Cranbrook
has become a real "Destination Area" taking at least a couple of days to
see.
