Population: 3,554 (2005)

In 1922, the Prairie Bible College* was established in Three Hills with L.E. Maxwell as its founding principal. This occurrence helped to increase the population of the town proper and its adjacent settlements. By the mid 1980's the nearby hamlets of Grantville and Ruarkville and the spacious 130 acre Bible College campus were annexed to the town.

Although a relatively small community, Three Hills had the distinction of hosting the Alberta Senior Summer Games in 1997. The town was chosen to host this event because of its being able to utilize large and well equipped facilities at the college. This included the opening and closing ceremonies which took place in the 4,300 seat Maxwell Memorial Tabernacle, Canada's largest religious auditorium (1954-2005).
