Sa mga Calgarians to be.. Some info's you might want to know.. ;D
Where to live in Calgary: Southwest (SW)
In the southwest, Bankview, Killarney, Mount Royal are recommended neighborhoods. The Southwest is seen as the nicest place to live in Calgary, so naturally this area has higher rent and home prices.
17th Avenue in the southwest is a short walk from downtown, with an eclectic mix of bars, restaurants and shops. 12th Avenue to 30th Avenue is a popular area for young singles and couples due to its close proximity to 17th Ave and the downtown core. If you venture a little further out from downtown, there are many popular neighbourhoods such as Haysboro, Acadia, Sundance and Chinook park. These areas are all serviced with ample amenities and with Macleod Trail and the C Train, all have excellent access to downtown.
Where to live in Calgary: Northwest (NW)
In the northwest, West Hillhurst, Sunnyside, Tuscany, Edgemont, Country Hills, Dalhousie and Rosedale are all pleasant, popular neighbourhoods. Kensington offers an eclectic mix of cafes, pubs, bistros, boutiques, arts and crafts shops. It's generally a fun place to hang out for a few hours and just a short walk from downtown.
Where to live in Calgary: Northeast (NE)
Calgary Airport is located fairly centrally in the city, in the NE quadrant. There also are some commercial areas in the northeast. Perhaps as a result of their proximity to these commercial facilities, the northeast neighbourhoods tend not to be the most desirable locations in Calgary. It is commonly heard that east of Deerfoot Trail is not as nice due to higher crime rates and gang problems. This is not to say all of the NE is like that, but it's known as the area that experiences the most petty crime. Lower rent has meant the northeast quadrant is one in which younger couples and some new immigrants buy their first Calgary homes, with a view to relocating later in their stay. Canada's labour force is relatively mobile, such that it is not uncommon for families to move three or four times during their working lives. Some nicer areas in the NE, such as Bridgeland, are closer to downtown.
Where to live in Calgary: Southeast (SE)
The northern part of the southeast quadrant is a commercial and light industrial area. The neighbourhoods that are adjacent to the commercial and industrial zones are not considered prime areas in which to live, and housing adjacent to these areas is typically lower priced. However, the far south part of the SE quadrant, which is well removed from the commercial and industrial zones, is just as popular as any other residential zone. McKenzie Lake and Midnapore are newer suburbs with good reputations. Inglewood (or Ninth Avenue East) is similar to Kensington, with the added attraction of antique stores and funky shops.
