Interesting in that 3 years ago was when I returned to Calgary and was making the decision on where to buy my house.
Also, to be fair, a lot of this is relative to experience. As stated in the other threads about this I lived ten years in a city with a population density of 17 473/sq km (not hard to guess where). Calgary is listed at 1 329/sq km so I don't think it will ever be busy enough for me.
