I moved 4 years ago.
It was very interesting, seeing peoples reactions.
I said I took a job in Red Deer and people were reserved. To say they were less than impressed is a good description.
Usually it was "Oh, Red Deer?" "I guess if it is a good move work wise"
When I told them I was actually going to live in Sylvan Lake the response was totally different, "Oh that is so nice" "I love Sylvan".
To be honest the only reason we bought in Sylvan was the house. If you could move our house/yard to Red Deer we would have bought there.
RubberDuck you are very correct in your statement.
I love living in Central Alberta. The weather can be crap, but that is the same for all of Alberta.
