Default What are the best value neighborhoods in Calgary?

I'm interested to hear people's thoughts on what they think are some of the best value neighborhoods in the city. Like what are the areas, in your opinion/experience, that are priced low for what you get?

Lately I've been wondering about Southwood, as an example. Established neighborhood with trees, inner-city-ish (i.e. reasonable commute to downtown), close to transit and other amenities, schools seem ok-ish based on Fraser Institute, good proximity to Fish Creek park, Heritage Park, the Glenmore Reservoir. And prices seem to be generally under $550,000 for a single family home.

Southwood doesn't seem, to me, to be drastically different than a Brentwood or a Glendale type community in terms of access to downtown, transit, schools, age of homes, etc. But Southwood seems to be consistently cheaper.

What are some other neighborhoods that you think offer good value?
