I lived in Airdrie before it was popular (i.e. before it had any of the big stores or anything).

*insert hipster graphic*

The drive wasn't overly bad, but it was enough to get tiring, and when it gets bad it can get BAD.

32km to downtown according to Google.

Chestermere is 19km from downtown, and there are multiple routes, so it's definitely better from that point of view.

Less stores in Chestermere, but easy ring road access makes most of the city easy to get to.

I like Chestermere more than Airdrie, but it's less of a town and more of a collection of houses and banks.
