Alameda offered a wide range of services for its residents, which included a full-service grocery and meat store, a restaurant, a banking institution, hotel and bar, grain elevator, full-service campground as well as many others. As with other small communities in Saskatchewan, many of the businesses are closing and/or closed and the residents drive to other communities for services that once were in their community.
