Are there any Calgarians here?

Former Calgarian here. Was born and raised there.

Ah right on. Is it nice there? I mean... like Vancouver?

Not even close to Vancouver....

Yeah.. It's nice.. I like it..
Very close to the mountains, nice and 'outdoorsy'...
most people here are quite fit and don't spend a lot of time inside..

currently there's a major housing shortage though.. lots of jobs available, but you won't be able to pay for housing :)

ah good stuff people :) hmm... I'll be on my way to Calgary on the 10th or so :)

My ex lives in canmore, a mountain town about 90 minutes west of calgary (near banff). The city has great access to the mountains if you're into that sort of thing.

Born and raised in Calgary. Still here today!

90 mins ? I can get to canmore in 45 mins

unless she lives on the east side of Calgary

canmore to the airport. in 45 mins? u drive 100 mph lol?

So, what are the bad areas of Calgary?

nowhere is really all that bad but the NE and SE are kinda bummy...I like calgary more than hongcouver, less crackheads

Yea, when I was still in Vancouver it was pretty bad. Like Franklin, I think it was, with all the bums. I heard they cleaned up Vancouver a lot though? for the Olympic Games.

From Toronto, but here's a bump for a great city!

go flames go!

I lived in Calgary for 5 years! Loved it! :thumbsup My baby brother still lives there and goes to U of A.

Right on. Hm, what are some of the things I have to know/see? Any museums or parks that are notable?
