Charleswood is a residential community and neighbourhood in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. It is located in the South-West of the city and is bordered by the neighbourhoods Tuxedo to the East, Fort Whyte to the South, and the Rural Municipality of Headingley on the West. It's boundaries are Roblin and the Assiniboine River to the north, Shaftesbury Boulevard on the East, Wilkes Avenue to the South and the Perimeter Highway to the West. The region was originally known for "the Passage," a ford across the Assiniboine River and was an important route for indigenous and Metis traders and settlers. In the 1869, the area was ceded by the Hudson's Bay Company to Canada and became a site for European settlement. Charleswood was incorporated as a Rural Municipality in 1913 and remained an independent municipality until it joined with the City of Winnipeg in 1972. Since the 1930s, Charleswood has been known as "The Suburb Beautiful."Charleswood is part of the city ward of Charleswood - Tuxedo - Westwood; and is part of the provincial electoral district of Roblin (replacing the former electoral district of Charleswood). It is also served by the Pembina Trails School Division.
