Not sure why everybody is saying this area is full of crime, it isnt. It is right by Hamptons and Edgemont, two relatively crime free neighbourhoods

Pros: 5 minute drive to Beacon Hill and plenty of shops, such as Costco, Canadian Tire, Home Depot, Sportchek and the Brick just too name a few of the big ones. Nice community with plenty of nice neighbours. Close to Shaganappi, Stony Trail and Country Hills Blvd.

Cons: A bit out from any LRT stations or Downtown. About a 25 minute drive not during rush hour. The entry points to the community are constantly used to flow traffic to and from Costco which could get annoying. By the dump although i doubt you can smell it. Not sure if wind blows garbage down on a bad day.
