In the neighboring communities - Rosscarack, Marda Loop, South Calgary, Altadore - it's much the same story.

So again, what the heck are you talking about?

Have you been to the modern suburb? It's lane homes on 25ft lots, townhouse and Condos and front garage SFHs on 35ft lots. The density of the modern burb is comparable to areas that haven't built up. My point has been repeatedly stated. The amount of land you take up is your contribution to sprawl and that is independant on of where you live.
