Foothills County, Municipal district in southern Alberta, Canada
The territory spans 3,642 square kilometers of land between Calgary and the Rocky Mountains, featuring rolling hills and grasslands.
The district evolved from its establishment as Foothills No. 31 to become a center for agriculture and ranching in southern Alberta.
Local communities maintain strong agricultural traditions through farmers markets, county fairs, and seasonal farming activities throughout the year.
Residents access municipal services through the administrative center, which manages development permits, road maintenance, and emergency response systems.
The region contains eight distinct hamlets, including Heritage Pointe and Millarville, each maintaining individual character within the municipal framework.
