Calgary Homes Near a Mosque, Gurdwara or Halal Grocer
Every other page for this search is a list of institutions. You are buying a house. Pick a distance and see the live listings near 11 individually verified addresses.
It searches live Calgary listings by straight-line distance to a specific address — one of 11 places of worship and halal or South Asian grocers whose location has been checked one at a time. Pick a distance, add price and beds if you want, and you get houses, not a list of institutions.
Right now 169 active listings sit within 800 m of one of them, 354 within 1.5 km and 576 within 3 km.
Search by distance
Loading listings…
Distances are straight-line to the address, converted to minutes at a 4.8 km/h walking pace and rounded up. They are not routed walking distances, so they do not account for Deerfoot Trail, a rail line, a fence or a river between the home and the address. Treat this as a shortlist tool and check a map before you decide.
The 11 addresses this search measures against
Every one was checked individually. The last column says how the coordinate was fixed, because that is the difference between a true and a false result on an 800 m search.

| Baitun Nur Mosque | 4353 54 Ave NE | Building outline |

What is deliberately not in here yet
A proximity search is only as good as its worst coordinate, so a place whose location could only be narrowed to a street is left out rather than included approximately. These are the gaps, named:
| Not in the search | Address | Why it is held back |
|---|---|---|
| Al-Madinah Calgary Islamic Centre (Green Dome) | 4616 80 Ave NE, T3J 4B7 | Address is well established, but no source resolves it to a building. Nominatim returns three 80 Ave NE street-line candidates about 290 m apart. data/schools.json’s point for Green Dome Islamic School on the same site is byte-identical to one of those street-line candidates, so it is the same guess, not a second source. |
| Bab Ul Hawaij Islamic Centre | 4656 Westwinds Dr NE | Street-line only; candidates about 500 m apart. |
| Al-Madinah Chestermere Islamic Centre | 300 Merganser Dr W, Chestermere | Street-line only; candidates about 700 m apart. |
| Al Madina Halal Meat | 3131 27 St NE | Street-line only; candidates about 1.2 km apart along 27 St NE. |
| Mandirs and temples | — | No address on this site has been verified against the organisation. Nothing publishable yet — the set is short a whole category until it is. |
If you know one of these buildings, or a place that should be in the list, text me the address at 403-888-4268 and I will verify it and add it. The set grows by confirmation, not by guesswork.
Talk to me about a specific house
Distance to an address is one input. Whether a particular house is the right buy also depends on the comparables in that pocket, the age of the furnace and roof, condo bylaws if it is a condo, and what the seller's real position is. That is the conversation, and it is free.
I work in English, Bangla, Hindi and Urdu, and I can arrange interpretation for other languages.
Tell me which place you are measuring from
Name the masjid, gurdwara, mandir, school or grocer that matters to you — including one that is not in the list above — and roughly what you need in a home. I will verify its address, measure the live listings against it, and send you the shortlist with the distances, the price bands and what each one is actually worth.
Questions
How do I find a house near a mosque in Calgary?
Search by distance to the specific mosque rather than by area. This page measures live MLS listings against 5 verified mosque and Islamic centre addresses — Baitun Nur Mosque (4353 54 Ave NE), Akram Jomaa Islamic Centre (39 Ave NE), Baitul Mukarram Islamic Centre (3770 Westwinds Dr NE), Rayyan Mosque (8 Taralake Cape NE), Hazrat Bilal Islamic Centre (20 Saddlestone Dr NE) — and returns the listings within the radius you pick, with the distance to each. Congregations differ in language, school programmes and Jumu'ah timing, so confirm which one you actually want first, then measure from there.
Which is the largest gurdwara in Calgary, and where is it?
Dashmesh Culture Centre, at 135 Gurdwara Sahib Blvd NE in Martindale, is Calgary’s largest gurdwara. OpenStreetMap still records that street under its former name, Martindale Blvd NE, so a mapping app or an older listing may show either. This page measures listing distances to the building itself.
How accurate are the distances on this page?
They are straight-line distances from the listing to the address, converted at a 4.8 km/h walking pace and rounded up, so the walk time is never optimistic. They are not routed walks: a river, a rail line, Deerfoot Trail or a fence between the home and the address does not change the straight line. Each result also shows how that address's coordinate was fixed — a building outline, a named point at that civic number, or an exact civic number match — because on an 800 m search that is the difference between a true and a false result.
Why are only 11 places in this search?
Because a wrong coordinate produces a wrong search result, and a place that is only roughly located is worse than one that is absent. 5 entries are held back and named on the page with the reason. As an example of why: geocoding the Akram Jomaa Islamic Centre from its street address landed 1,012 m from the building, and this site had previously published two different wrong streets for it. Mandirs and temples are not in the search at all yet, because no address has been verified against the organisation. If you know a building, text me and I will verify and add it.
Can you recommend the best neighbourhood for my community?
No, and no REALTOR® in Alberta should. Recommending or ranking an area by the religion, ancestry, origin or immigration status of the people who live there is steering, which is prohibited discrimination under the Alberta Human Rights Act. What I can do is exactly what this page does: measure distance to the specific mosque, gurdwara, temple, school or grocer that matters to you, alongside price, property type, months of supply and commute, and let you decide. That information is available to every buyer who asks for it.
