Parkridge is primarily a residential area located at the far west edge of Saskatoon. Most of the home building activity in the area occurred between 1970 and 1985 but new lots have been opened up over the past decade and nearly two hundred new homes were added during that time. The largest majority of the homes there today are single-family detached houses but a small selection of town homes, apartments, and two-unit dwellings can also be found.
