I continue to love Inglewood (natch) even having moved away 3 years ago.

Pros:

Close to DT
Lots of character
Can take the river pathway anywhere
A couple of good restaurants and more very close
Bird sanctuary

Cons:

Some traffic issues
No grocery store
School options are not the best
Expensive to get a place big enough for a family

Moved to Chinook Park a few years ago when I married into having kids and my Inglewood house was too small.

Pros

Easy access to 14th, Glenmore, Macleod. Easy to get around the city
Bike rides around the reservoir
Close to shopping
I dig 1950s houses, especially bungalows
Big trees, quiet streets
Good schools

Cons

Pricey
Getting around can be annoying at rush hour
Old house maintenance costs

One thing in common for both are friendly neighbors. I know almost all my neighbours, and it is such a nice change from when I lived in newer developments (Tuscany). It's also nice to see Chinook Park getting younger, a lot of the seniors are moving out and being replaced with young families.
