Hi moved to Edmonton last year but my husband has the chance to relocate to Calgary or Lethbridge with his job we know that house rentals are a lot less in Lethbridge but don't know much else about the area. Calgary is appealing as it's close to the Rockies but don't know which areas are the best to live in for a family, any advise on Calgary or Lethbridge would be great.

It would depend where hubby would be working in Calgary, and how he would commute.

I live in Coventry Hills and its great, i previously lived in Renfrew and it wasn't so great

I have friends in Panorama, Evanston and Country Hills and they all seem like nice places too!

Or if hubby doesn't mind a bit of a longer commute, Airdrie is quite family oriented

my hubby is a long haul driver so away a lot so the commute doesn't really matter thanks for the advice will look into the areas you said

You know that Calgary isn't the only town close to the Rockies? Lethbridge is close to Waterton National Park, which is also part of the Glacier National Park in the US, and is, in my humble opionion, better than Banff (not as developed).

Thanks for that I had never heard of Waterton National Park it looks lovely will defiantly have to have a drive down there.
