I would choose Calgary as a place to live on the basis of sunshine days, young highly educated population, strong sense of Community and volunteerism, proximity to the mountains and foothills, great healthcare, strong spirit of entrepreneurship, good place to raise a family, etc.

In spite of the recent downturn, IMO Calgary is still one of the best places to live in Canada, particularly for a young, upwardly mobile person like yourself and partner.

I'm into this.
