For All Calgarians- What keeps you here?
There are lots of great places to live in the world, but obviously about a million of us decided we'd spend our days here. I've often thought about moving away, and still plan to, but I think I'll return here or stay here no matter what happens.
For me, family and friends are big things keeping me here.
So is the weather.
-I love the sunshine we get
-I love snow, and I love the "breaks" we get from winter when the chinooks roll though
-I also love the standard of living and the lifestyle, and the fact I can be in the mountains in 30 minutes
-I also am quite fond of the long summer nights
-I feel a little silly admitting it, but the Flames play a huge part in keeping me here. That would be 41+ nights a year of live entertainment that I'd be missing.
If our inversions continue to get worse though, I could be out of here. They already inspired me to live in the far west.
