Location

Regardless of the nature of a business, location and proximity are key to success and efficient operations.

The Town of Pincher Creek is located in the South West corner of Alberta and is easily accessed from all directions. This location places Pincher Creek in the enviable position of servicing two highways, along with year round tourist traffic from Waterton Lakes Park, Castle Mountain Ski Resort, and the Old Man River Dam.
These attractions are 30 minutes or less from Pincher Creek, and draw over 500,000 visitors per year. Combined with Pincher Creek’s 35,000 Trade Area residents, it is well situated to become the business hub of South Western Alberta.

2023 Property Assessment Notices
March 23, 2023
New Process for Property Assessments
In the past, the Town of Pincher Creek has issued a “Combined Property Assessment and Tax Notice.” This meant that the property owner was notified of their assessment for the year at the same time they were notified of the amount of taxes owed. The new process for 2023 will be that the property owner will receive a Property Assessment Notice separate from the Property Tax Notice.
