While the land was annexed by Edmonton in 1913, development of the neighbourhood didn't occur until much later. According to the 2001 federal census three in ten (27.8%) of residences in the neighbourhood were built shortly after the end of World War II, that is, between 1946 and 1960. Another four in ten residences (37.0%) were built during the 1960s. There was little new development in the neighbourhood until the mid-1990s. Between 1996 and 2000, there was a sharp increase in the number of residences constructed with another one in five (21.8%) being built during this period.[4] In 2005, the most common type of residence in the neighbourhood was the single-family dwelling. These accounted for six out of ten (63%) of the residences in the neighbourhood. Rented apartments and apartment style condominiums accounted for another one in four (23%) of residences. Duplexes accounting for one in eight (12%) or residences.[5] The remaining 2% of residences were row houses. Seven out of ten (71%) or residences were owner occupied, while three out of ten (29%) were rented.[6] There is a single school in the neighbourhood, Kensington Elementary School, operated by the Edmonton Public School System. Since September 2011, a portion of Kensington School is leased to the Greater North Central Francophone Education Region No. 2 which operates a Kindergarten to grade 6 francophone school, École À la Découverte. The community is represented by the Kensington Community League, established in 1960, which maintains a community hall and outdoor rink located at 121 Street and 134A Avenue.[7][8] DemographicsIn the City of Edmonton's 2012 municipal census, Kensington had a population of {{nts|3595}} living in {{nts|1753}} dwellings,[9] a -6% change from its 2009 population of {{nts|3824}}.[10] With a land area of {{convert|1.32|km2|sqmi|abbr=on}},[11] it had a population density of {{nts|2723.5}} people/km2 in 2012.[11][9] Surrounding neighbourhoods{{Canadian City Geographic Location (8-way)| Northwest = Pembina | North = Baranow, Carlisle | Northeast = Griesbach | West = Wellington | Centre = Kensington | East = Rosslyn | Southwest = Athlone | South = Calder | Southeast = Lauderdale | image= }} See also
