Canmore would still be a rundown dump if it was 2.5 hours from Calgary. I lived there and have many long time friends that were born and raised there. It was a booming place in the late 70's and 80's and was pretty decent but it's been on a long decline over the last 25 years. I lived there and go back to visit friends periodically. I don't hate it but most city folk will in short time because of the extreme wind, isolation, and lack of things to do.
