Calgary's biggest asset honestly is the people. I've never lived somewhere where neighbors actually say hello and help each other out like they do here.

The gaming community in Calgary is bigger than you'd think. There are regular LAN events and gaming cafes. Also some great shops for PC building components.

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

Broken City is absolutely incredible. We went last weekend and the food was outstanding. If you haven't been, put it on your list. Best Japanese in Calgary by far.

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!

This is super helpful, thanks for sharing. I've been wondering about this exact thing. Anyone else have a similar experience?

TELUS fibre is the best internet I've had in Calgary. The speeds are consistent and I rarely have outages. Worth the switch from Shaw/Rogers if it's available in your area.

I drive from Cranston to downtown every day. The trick is leaving before 7:15 AM or after 9:00 AM. That 30-minute window makes a massive difference in commute time.

Cheers!

I'd recommend talking to at least 3 different mortgage brokers. The rate difference between them can be significant and it adds up over 25 years.

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

Hope that helps.
