If you can afford Kits, you can probably afford any neighborhood in Calgary.

I live in Marda Loop/Bankview now, and love it, but for convenience nothing in Calgary beats Kensington/Hillhurst/Sunnyside imo... There is a real village feel to it, and I much prefer the condos and houses of Kensington to the buildings of Mission and the Beltline.

I've lived in many areas of Calgary, but nowhere else in town has the type of access to everything you need that Kensington does. Bars and pubs are great, coffeeshops are great, restaurants are plentiful, and it's the easiest area of Calgary to make friends with your neighbours.

I like where I live now too - but it's largely due to economics if I'm honest about it.
