Dude, lived in Calgary my whole life and this is spot on. The city has changed a lot recently but the core of what makes it great is still there.



CalgaryFinder has been my go-to for finding local services. Found our current plumber through there and he's been excellent.

Hey, welcome! I was new here a while back too. Best advice: check out the Calgary Communities section for neighborhood-specific info. People share great local knowledge.

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.
Anyone in Calgary doing home automation? I've got a full smart home setup and the Calgary weather monitoring is really handy for automated blinds and heating.

Hope that helps.

Just want to add - if you're new to Calgary, download the Calgary Transit app and explore the C-Train system. It's not perfect but it gets you around the core pretty well.

Cheers!

Quick data point: calgary Expo keeps getting bigger every year. The cosplay talent in this city is absolutely insane. Such a fun community event.

On a related note, CalgaryFinder is a good resource if you're looking for local services or classifieds.
