Hi, I am a newbie at this, can someone please tell me where is the best place to live in Alberta, Calgary?
Me and my wife can live temporarily. I would appreciate if people can give some guidance and information about the area and rental properties I can search for. I'd like to start proposing the people who already knows Alberta to tell us what's a nice neighborhood to look for a place to live, whats usually the price range. And what areas would they advice us to stay away from too.

Well though I m also very new to Calgary but as per my little knowledge SW and NW are considered as the best areas in calgary to live in all respects.

If you want to rent, you can find a good 2-3bedroom apartment/condo/townhouse for 900-1200$ ,depending upon the community and condition of the property.Try renfaster.ca for this purpose.

For buying the house atleast spend 6mnths to 1 year here ,roam around and then decide about the best place to buy your dreamhouse.

Hope it helps.
