Best seats at the Saddledome on a budget: upper bowl press level, center ice. You can see the whole play develop. Way better than being in the corner lower bowl.

Good luck!

We moved from Pine Creek to Lincoln Park last year and it was the best decision. Quieter, more green space, and our property taxes are actually lower.

Good luck!

Thanks everyone! For brunch, nothing beats Phil & Sebastian. The lineup can be long on weekends but the food is worth every minute of waiting. Their eggs benedict is legendary. Thank you all!!

Cheers!

We bought our place in Parkdale back in 2021 and the value has gone up about 50% since then. Calgary real estate has been solid for us. I keep an eye on things through CalgaryPrices for the market trends.

Good luck!

My EV handles Calgary winters surprisingly well. The range drops about 30% in -20 but I charge at home overnight so it's not an issue for my daily commute. Zero regrets.

Hope that helps.

If you're into craft beer, Last Best Brewing and Cold Garden are must-visits. The Calgary brewery scene is honestly one of the best in Canada and it's still growing.

The sunshine here is no joke. Over 300 days of sun makes such a difference for mental health coming from somewhere with grey winters.

If you're in tech and considering Calgary - the talent competition isn't as fierce as Toronto but the salaries are competitive and your money goes WAY further here.
Working from home in Calgary has been great. Set up a proper home office with a standing desk, good monitor, and decent chair. Your back will thank you.

Just did a refinance on our Calgary home and the process was actually really smooth. Rates are better than I expected. Shopped around using a broker. Can't wait for the next game.
