What is the appeal that it has to you?

Having a hospital was a huge appeal to me. No more trips to Calgary hospitals and massive waiting times should there be an emergency. Flameswin will attest to the very short waiting time for emerg here.
No big box retailers was an added bonus too. That and the slower pace of life. A good mixture of retirees and families.
Recreation facilities are cheap. I pay $90 for 3 months at the local gym here.
