I am always amazed by Canadian cities and towns - so clean and safe. Hardly any gun battles going down the street and hardly anybody being yanked from their cars and beaten mercilessly. People aren't shot while walking their dogs or working at convenience markets. And the people seem so articulate and educated! Canadians don't grunt, scream gibberish, or dance around in intersections. Amazing.
Great video. Production values are getting real good as these go on! I’d love to see a similar list for inner city specifically, I.e. best bang for your buck near downtown. Or best neighborhoods of the era, I.e. ‘best pre WW2 neighborhood’ and ‘best turn of century’ and ‘best new’
Suggest you Create a best downsizing-to safe walkable community 1. Low accommodation maintenance and great retirement amenities 2. Mobility/independence when one was does not drive anymore ….. 3.
There are many. Would love to learn more about your situation, budgets and more to give you great advice. Lets chat here www.chamberlaingroup.ca/contact/
Really inspire! I would be a new immigrant to Canada soon, just want to find a new life style there. You guys' video help a lot, I would follow your every new video in the future. LOL
Is all of Calgary a suburb built since the 1960's? All the shots are of rows and rows of developer-built houses. No mention of shops, restaurants or bars. No mention of walkability, nightlife or community culture. I know its a real estate video, but are there any urban communities in Calgary?

Hello... Not sure which prices you are looking at, but the numbers we posted were the average prices at time of shooting for the whole community, including all property types. Hope that makes sense.
Great question... Schooling wasn't. This was strictly based on our teams experience. Stay tuned for top areas and schools however... we got some great stuff cooking up right now! For our clients we just compiled a list of the top schools and areas that you should live to go to them, so if you're interested just email in info@chamberlaingroup.ca and we can chat more.
Thank you for taking the time to comment and watching! At the time of the shooting, that was the average sale price of all property types. To find a detached home in good condition, would be more than this for sure.
@@mikej238 20 mins to Downtown! 45 mins to Canmore. COP few mins away. Costco at 10 mins. New Costco coming which is going to be just 10 mins too. Many off leash dog parks near by as well. I don’t know how is it too far from everything haha
@@siddhantnaik no schools, no medical facilities, have to drive everywhere .Compare that to something like Sundance, 5 schools, Lake, Fish Creek Park...river fishing, close to every shopping you need, LRT, Bus, dentists, medical right in the community, Bragg Creek 30 minutes away. Costco is an asset?lol..we have every store imaginable within 5 minutes drive 20 minute walk
@@mikej238 No medical facilities ?Foothills hospital is 10 mins drive from Cresmont. What you talking about lol ? There is a new big mall being build there like crossiron mills. Anyways it depends on what priorities anyone has.
I disagree about a mahogany. It has no decent pathways around these neighbourhoods at all. Auburn Bay and Mahogany are not friendly for biking or walking.
Yes we were looking into Auburn Bay as we live in a community close by and would be an easy transition but wow Auburn Bay is a nightmare and Mahogany is even worse. There also are no meat and potato amenities in either community you have drive a ways to get to any and definitely not walk friendly. Both seem over rated to me. The planner who developed those communities really dropped the ball. They both feel like complicated labyrinths you may get lost in lol and walking paths suck.
I’ve lived in Panorama hills literally since houses started being built here. 3rd house in our culdesac. After living in these northern communities I can’t stand them anymore and I miss the older communities like penbrook. It’s really depressing not having the large tress of the older communities and like 90% of the neighborhood feels like a rat race where everything is the same. We don’t even have normal basketball courts in our communities anymore it’s all just 1 single hoop half courts or weird circle courts with a triple hoop in the middle -.- parks are so spread apart from each and just themselves in terms of what’s on the play ground. You don’t get that giant grand park feeling that all the old elementary schools had. Safe? Sure. Hidden gem? Eh. Disconnected/bad walk ability? 100% unless you just want to walk 5-7 blocks before you even seen another field that has pretty nothing on it.
Well, it is kinda obvious that you trying to sell Mahogany, however, this is certainly not the best community for families - any decent sport and/or social clubs ? NO, people have to drive all the way up to NW or to the older and established communities like aforementioned Lake Bonavista. The only reason you put these newer communities to the top spots - because you are selling properties in those communities.
Funny enough you’re wrong. That is what our team voted for and to ain’t here to hide or twist that. I live in the NW and personally think that’s the best area but when the team votes we represent. Thanks for watching and taking time to comment.
Sorry to say but you are biased towards Southeast/ South bcoz you live there and you know better about these communities. You kind of make subtle fun of any communities that is not near Fish Creek Park/ Lake which I find stupid. You are not making this video for your home but your clients - they could have different preferences feeling home (immigrants), cultures, religious places, inclusiveness (not just white communities), foods, hills, convenience to industrial area, students, LRT transportation, inner city life, vibrant but messy life etcs. rather then depressed secluded life in big home and have a dog to get rid of depression - other than just walking in dead park and frozen lake with a dog. When your brokers do not agree for example even then you are not open to ideas and still making fun. I like your videos and watch regularly appreciate your honesty but unfortunately I observed this a lot of time.
Thanks for your response. I don’t live in the South and not biased at all towards it. We do and did make this based on our teams response. Too bad you couldn’t see it that way.
Thank you for watching and commenting… Many people actually are buying and selling. In fact, we’ve helped over 100 people so far this year already! There are many reasons to make a move if it’s right for you.
We need a list for most accessible with transit. And one for most bike friendly
Agreed those categories made no sense to me
