Evergreen, which includes Evergreen Estates, is a suburban residential neighbourhood in the southwest quadrant of Calgary, Alberta. It is located south of the Fish Creek Provincial Park, and southeast from the Tsuu T'ina first nation reserve. It Is east of Alpine Park with the Stoney Trail ring road being the border, north of Bridlewood and west of the neighbourhoods of Shawnee Slopes, Millrise and Shawnessy.

There are two sections of Evergreen, the older and more established Evergreen Estates, and the newer Evergreen to the south. The two sections, while civically amalgamated, have been known in the past as separate communities. The separator of the two is that all dwellings north of Fish Creek Blvd are considered to be in Evergreen Estates and all dwellings south of that boulevard is considered to be Evergreen. The members of both sections have separate community associations and street naming patterns. All streets with Evergreen in their name are members of the Shawnee-Evergreen Community Association along with the neighbouring community Shawnee Slopes, while those with different names are members of the Calgary Evergreen Community Association.

The area is represented in the Calgary City Council by the Ward 13 councillor.

The film Radiant City largely takes place in the community of Evergreen.
