Description |
Strathmore-Brooks, in south-central Alberta, is bordered on the northeast by the Red Deer River and on much of the south by the Bow River. In the 2004 redistribution, the Siksika First Nation moved from the riding to Little Bow, and the riding was stretched north to include the communities of Rockyford and Rosebud. Other communities here are Bassano, Brooks, Strathmore, Gleichen, Hussar and Standard.
Agriculture is the main industry in Strathmore-Brooks, with manufacturing in second place. Household incomes, at $60,538, are slightly below the Alberta average, with seven per cent of residents considered low income. About 61 per cent of residents were born in Alberta, while nearly eight per cent are immigrants. Twelve per cent of the population is of German origin.
