* Effective January 1, 2021, the REALTORS® Association of Edmonton will be using the term Greater Edmonton Area (GEA) to replace Edmonton CMA (Census Metropolitan Area). This change is intended to reduce confusion with the term Comparative Market Analysis. The geographic area remains the same – only the terminology has changed.
