Fort McMurray is the urban heart of Canada's oil sands, dominated by energy production, camp and commercial services, and heavy-industrial supply. A 2025 municipal census counted about 78,600 residents in the urban area. That mix of oilfield-services industrial, worker-camp and commercial buildings, offices, and retail keeps steady demand for reliable commercial cleaning and year-round grounds care, and Upkeep connects those properties with contractors who specialize in exactly that work.
