Carson Grove is a neighbourhood in the east end of Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.[1] The neighbourhood spans the former Ottawa-Gloucester boundary, which still forms the boundary between Rideau-Rockcliffe Ward and Beacon Hill-Cyrville Ward.

The neighbourhood was built in the early 1970s by the Campeau Corporation,[2] and was named for John Carson, an early settler in the region.[3] The neighbourhood was expanded in the mid-1990s with the building of Carson Village, which was developed by the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation.[4]

The neighbourhood is roughly bounded on the west by the Aviation Parkway, on the North by

Montreal Road as the northern boundary and Bathgate Road as the eastern border.[6]

According to the

Canada 2016 Census, the neighbourhood had a population of 2,918.[7]
