What value are you getting for your taxes? The roads in Edmonton are basically donkey trails.

A more fair comparison is between St. Albert and certain Edmonton neighbourhoods or districts, like Crestwood or Griesbach. St. Albert is nice to live in, but if you work in Edmonton, the daily commute is brutal. Homelessness is a national problem, so whether you see it or not does not mean it isn’t a St. Albert problem, too.

You should do guided tours like this more often in your videos, nice job!

Wha

These should be called fish bowl homes because they are like living in a fish bowl. No yard, no privacy, an absolute rip off. They are basically selling you apartments for 1/2 million dollars each. I can’t believe that governments are letting builders build homes this close together again. I thought this practice was banned back in the eighties along with cookie cutter neighbourhoods. Too bad Canada wasn’t bigger so we could space the houses further apart.

Very spacious and the layout is not too bad either. A little bit pricey for a townhouse but looks elegant and perfect if you can’t be bothered with huge yard maintenance or snow removal. Just have to be careful with condo fees and if there is a HOA. They can be a real PITA.

I definitely like the layout!👍

Massive urban sprawl

I was looking forward to seeing you post another video. It’s been quite awhile. That condo looks very impressive, especially for 230k. It’s sad that there isn’t much in St.Albert for that price. Possibly grandin village or ridgewood terrace? St.Albert is pretty expensive sadly and I also sadly think St.Albert is for the elite, and I am definitely NOT elite! I work at one of the busier grocery stores in St.Albert and you would be surprised how some people there let me know that I’m not the elite.

High property taxes….but still subsidized by Edmonton tax payers. Vastly more St Albert residents work and use the infrastructure of Edmonton vs the other way around. Love hearing St Albert residents complain about traffic on the roads they don’t pay for and make congested by their choice to have long commutes.

Thanks for the update

I live in Sturgeon, we have nice bungalows, which I prefer, bigger yards and a huge Dutch elm tree canopy over our streets. Plus quick and easy access to amenities and the Henday/Yellowhead.

Great video. Knowing the negative side of living in a city is pretty helpful. Thanks!

In St. Albert there is no bad area. It just depends what's area is more in your budget and if the home fits your needs. You want a larger yard buy older....

They would'nt let me finish my comment & I will be surprised if they'll let my comment stand. As it is my meaning is clear enough.

I moved from BC to Alberta. As sopn as my flight landed in Edmonton I was homless for the next 4 yrs. One of the most repressive right-wing gov't on the continent. I made my own joke about things here: Can you name the capital city of Alberta? Edmonton. Wrong. Huston Texas. Province without social services of any kind except for the affuent. Gov't throws people out on sidwalks to live in tents and they suffer the constant harasment by the cops. If you're poor you're d I

Hi Evan. I bumped into your mom the other day at Sobeys. I’m your kindergarten teacher from Neil M Ross. ( Ms. Perra). So wonderful to see you on TH-cam. I enjoyed watching your video and congratulations on such an amazing job featuring some of the best neighborhoods in St. Albert. Warm regards to you and your family. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and experiences to help people find their own prefect home to buy.

why are you even producing this negative video about St. Albert, I would not use you as a agent and I live in St. Albert, downvoted. Does Rivervalley know you did this video?

I wouldn’t live in the north end of St Albert if you paid me. Believe it or not Grandin has my vote. Btw the amount of infills being built should tell you something.

What does fully renovated mean it's been updated all repairs have been made no polyb pipes or asbestos new roof? New windows for entire building If not what age is building When you renovate a room or condo the entire condo not building has to be brought up to present day building codes it's law.

You had me at no diversity 😊

st.albert property tax is 5600 a year

Ugh, ugh, ugh

I’m here now visiting family! It’s fabulous!!

Yes you a right, moved from Edmonton to Fort Saskatchewan. Love it here.

Is this available for rent?

Thanks for the video. It's a great overview

Same house will cost you $650k in Calgary. 😅

Racism isn’t just by white people bud. People of all ethnicities can be racist in our woke culture and it’s called sin😉. Only Jesus can set us free from prejudices and have love for our fellow human beings.

Sherwood Park is way better. St Albert has one main road. Thats it. Most overated city in the province.

Very good! I'm from Brazil and I'm planning to move to St. Albert. Probably in 2025 and I will contact you to buy our house. I followed you on Instagram.

Such an awesome video! Love St.Albert

Hey Evan, my friend, I'll be moving to canada in December. Just got my PR, and I'm excited, and I'm still undecided about what province to settle in. I'm coming in from Nigeria. What do you advise?

1:30 Without a shadow of a doubt, the reason why Calgary will and should always cost more than Edmonton, is location. Calgary is a 1h drive to what is generally considered one of the, if not the most beautiful locations in Canada, The Rocky Mountains. Edmonton is a 4h drive from anything that isn't a flat farmers field and for a lot of people, that just isn't acceptable quality of life. Also, Edmonton's airport is probably the worst set up in any city over 1m people, possibly in the world. Edmonton's airport has very few international destination, almost all trips travel to Calgary, Vancouver, or Toronto, unless you're going Cancun, almost guaranteed, you have a layover. The same is absolutely not true from Calgary. Also, Edmonton's airport is a 30+ minute drive south of the city, and get this, even if you live on the South side of the city, it costs $75 each way in taxi to get to the airport. That is actually attrocious and unacceptable, but won't be fixed for another hundred years due to bad planning. Compare that to Vancouver, you can take a $4 train from anywhere in the city to the airport in half the time. Much like most major cities in the world.

I love the older neighbourhoods and the character homes. I’m sad to see them tearing down the old houses and replacing them with infill houses. I’m currently house sitting a home on Balmoral Drive. They called it home since 1960! I love the history of that neighbourhood and always feel privileged to house sit for them every summer. Lacombe park is my favourite spot of all though. I hailed from Bertha Kennedy Community School. Thanks for taking us on a tour of the beautiful community I’m proud to call home. Great video as usual Evan!

Canada’s most affluent city. Valet parking at Value Village , homeless have dental plan, Food Bank offers Caviar

St.Albert seems well organized and clean

Really like this home

What a smile on that thumbnail 😁😁

I'm moving to Edmonton and I have a question on buildings with gyms. Something near nait,pet friendly and between 1000 to 1300

I know a boy was stabbed and killed in st Alberta recently a 15 year old walking his dog tragic it used to be safe

Is it possible to buy property in Edmonton as a US-born citizen? I live in Houston and travel to Calgary/Edmonton often for business. I like Edmonton more than Calgary as a summer city (although I also like Banff being close to Calgary!)…looking to buy a second property there for the summers to escape the intense heat/humidity here in Houston from June-September

Nice R32 diecast you have there

Can you discuss winter in St. Albert compared to Edmonton and Calgary?

Is the political culture of St. Albert conducive to traditional families who don't want to live in a Woke environment??

Are there a lot of people moving there from Calgary and Edmonton? Is it similar to Okotoks or Airdrie?😅
