| Description |
Drumheller-Stettler is a large rural riding in the southeast of the province, bordering Saskatchewan on the east. The 2004 redistribution expanded the old riding of Drumheller-Chinook to encompass the eastern half of the old Lacombe-Stettler riding, to the south and east of Buffalo Lake. Communities affected include Stettler, Donalda, Botha, Gadsby, Big Valley and Nevis. Other major communities in the riding are Drumheller, Hanna, Oyen and Brownfield.
Agriculture is the biggest industry here, though Dinosaur Provincial Park is a major tourist draw. Incomes are below the Alberta norm, at $51,904 for the average household, but fewer than nine per cent of residents are considered low income. More than 76 per cent of the population was born in Alberta, while 4.4 per cent are immigrants. People of German origin make up one-tenth of the population.
