    *don't see any link for the house tour, but it kinda sucks that they divide those houses up like that with the up stairs and down stairs like that, speically since the houses are so old to begin with*

    What does it cost to buy a small house outside the city? Is that an option or too expensive still? Then you don't piss away your money to a landlord.

    Well that is discouraging, hey just a heads up. We moved from Alberta Ave. to Leduc. It's amazing, almost every house here allows pets. The prices are about the same, just you get so much more home/yard for the same $$$
    Commute, it took 35 min to get to my part time job on Jasper and 106 and 45(ish) to get to my part time job by the Space Science Center in the west end.
    Hey if you want to learn more about Leduc contact me. It isn't as bad of a commute as I thought. And not so bad a town. We Bought our home in South Park.
    Cheers,
    Wes

      It's like that in most major cities. Considering they're trying to find a house close to Shelly's job, they're probably looking in the downtown area. As you can see from some of the houses, some are next to newly built ones. That's the revitalization of the area. Unless they're willing to shell out some serious cash for a decent house, it's better for them to look on the outskirts of Edmonton.
