While Airdrie is growing at a tremendous rate, another Rocky View town is also blooming.

Mayor Dennis Tracz from Irricana says there are signs of growth in the community.

"We do have a new development in town. There are lots and houses available and we're looking forward to growing."

When asked who is bringing their lifestyle to the quaint little town, Mayor Tracz says it's a bit of everyone.

"We're lucky where we are on Highway 9. The majority of our town is a commuter town but we do have people that live in town."

According to the 2016 National Census, Irricana sits at just under 1200 residents, which is a 4.1% increase from 2011.
