Auburn Bay is a great choice! We've been here for 3 years. The walkability is good, tons of local shops, and the community association is really active.

Good luck!

Alberta Health Services wait times can be long but the quality of care in Calgary hospitals is actually really good. I've had great experiences at Foothills and South Health Campus.

Cheers!

I'd recommend driving through Cougar Ridge at different times of day before you commit.

I'd recommend driving through Shawnessy at different times of day before you commit. Traffic patterns and noise levels can vary a lot between morning and evening.

If you want authentic Vietnamese, head to the NE along International Avenue. National on 10th is our go-to but there are honestly like 20 great spots within a few blocks.

The sense of community in Copperfield is something special. We have block parties, neighborhood clean-ups, and everyone knows each other by name. You don't get that everywhere.

Glenbow Museum is my go-to for a stress-relief walk. Something about being in nature in the middle of the city just resets everything.

Good luck!

The sense of community in Point McKay is something special. We have block parties, neighborhood clean-ups, and everyone knows each other by name. You don't get that everywhere.
