Great place to visit, just for the food alone but living out there... Unless you own your house, paying $2k/month rent for a condo doesn't really seem like living. Was in a brand new 950sq ft condo airbnb for the entire trip and by the end of it with 2 kids it felt so cramped. Calgary is definitely a way better city to raise kids. Even in Whitehorn!
Dang, I love the rain out here. Green year round. I love it. I realize I am in the scant minority here though.

The food out here is unreal. If you have the income, and budget well, you can really live the best possible life.

That said, my partner and I have a bit of a rental unicorn - around 900 sq feet for $1750 in an oldish building. If we lose that, we will move. Some of our friends pay $3000 (!!!!) for two-bedrooms. I couldn't do it.
