“Growth takes place outside of your comfort zone”
Nestled in East Central Alberta, the Village of Consort is an active community with approximately 700 citizens and a large rural surrounding area.
Surrounded and supported by farming families, Consort is in reality a much larger community, made up of both village residents and their rural counterparts. This duality is not only what makes rural communities uniquely different from urban centres, but is a key component to what makes Consort thrive.
The village has grocery stores, restaurants, a hockey arena, bowling alley, curling rink, baseball diamonds, library, dance studio, active 4-H clubs, K-12 school, and several other businesses.
Surrounded by nature’s beauty and a supportive community, Consort is a small town with a big heart.
