Cochrane’s Population Growth

You will need Acrobat Reader to read documents in PDF format.

Cochrane has seen rapid growth over the last decade, due in part to the growth of Calgary and also to the community’s highly desirable location in the foothills west of Calgary overlooking the Rocky Mountains. During the 1990s, Cochrane was in the top ten of Canada’s fastest growing municipalities with a population over 5,000. According to the Statistics Canada 1996 Census, Cochrane ranked seventh in Canada with a total population growth of 41.0% between 1991 and 1996.

Since 1996, that trend has continued. Between 1996 and 2000, the population of the municipality has increased by an average of 9.4% per year. In that time period, the community grew by 3,749 residents for a total population of 11,173. The recently released Statistics Canada Census Data for the period 1996 - 2001 shows Cochrane as the fastest growing municipality in Canada with a population over 5,000, having grown by 58.9% within this 5-year period.
