Stavely
Stavely is a town in southern Alberta, Canada. It is located 110 kilometres (68 mi) south of Calgary on Highway 2 and 16 km (9.9 mi) east of Willow Creek Provincial Park.
Stavely was named for Alexander Staveley Hill, managing director of the Oxley Ranching Company that was founded in 1882 by John R Craig on 100,000 acres of grazing rights.
The Canadian Pacific Railway once ran through the town. Its closure led to the removal of all but one of Stavely's grain elevators.
The people of Stavely and the area are proud of their friendliness and community spirit. The Stavely hotel is known to have the reputation for the “coldest beer on the #2.”
In the 2021 Census of Population conducted by Statistics Canada, the Town of Stavely had a population of 544 living in 269 of its 287 total private dwellings, a change of 0.6% from its 2016 population of 541. With a land area of 1.78 km2 (0.69 sq mi), it had a population density of 305.6/km2 (791.5/sq mi) in 2021.
