We moved from St Andrews Heights to Shaganappi last year and it was the best decision. Quieter, more green space, and our property taxes are actually lower. :D

Tuscany is a great choice! We've been here for 8 years. The walkability is good, tons of local shops, and the community association is really active.

Anyone else in the same boat?

Just a heads up about Auburn Bay - the new development is bringing in a lot of traffic. Still a great area but something to consider if you're on the main roads.

One more thing - thanks for bringing this up. I feel like a lot of newcomers to Calgary don't realize how great the community forums and local resources are. Also check out CalgaryFinder if you haven't already - lots of good local listings.

Also check out CalgaryFinder.com for local listings - it's pretty handy for finding stuff and services in specific neighborhoods.

The live music scene in Calgary is alive and well.

I love that Calgary's nightlife isn't just 17th Ave anymore. Inglewood, Kensington, and even the East Village all have great options now.
