Almond (ward)

Almond is one of the 17 wards of the City of Edinburgh Council. Established in 2007 along with the other wards, it currently elects four councillors.

The River Almond flows through much of its territory, which covers the north-western edge of the city – Barnton, Cammo, Cramond, Davidson's Mains, Muirhouse (a 2017 boundary change addition which increased the population and consequently the number of councillors) and Silverknowes – and outlying communities at Dalmeny, Kirkliston, Newbridge and South Queensferry, adjoining West Lothian and the natural boundary of the Firth of Forth. In 2019, the ward had a population of 36,730.
