Parkallen is a residential neighbourhood in south Edmonton, Alberta, Canada located just to the east of the University of Alberta farm and the Neil Crawford Centre. Most of the neighbourhood development occurred after the end of World War II with eight out of ten residences constructed by 1960 according to the 2005 municipal census.[7]

The community is represented by the Parkallen Community League, established in 1920, which maintains a community hall and outdoor rink located at 111 Street and 65 Avenue.[8][9]
