I'm not convinced that Vancouver is significantly more expensive in terms of cost of living vs Calgary unless you absolutely have to live downtown or jericho beach or w/e. Food is cheaper there, gas is more expensive, transit is better, rent and parking are kind of rough in both places. Calgary is harder to navigate without a vehicle.

Calgary has had a ton of inflation in the last decade especially with food/drink prices if you like to eat out.
