Help us determine next year's best neighbourhoods by completing the 2012 Best Neighbourhoods Survey
For Avenue’s second annual Best Neighbourhoods issue, we asked Calgarians in a city-wide survey, done in conjunction with Leger Marketing, to tell us what they considered most important when choosing a community to live in.
A low crime rate, friendly neighbours, being pedestrian-friendly and having a short commute to school or work shot to the top, while living in a newly developed neighbourhood or an area where homes have large yards barely registered as having any importance.
Leger Marketing looked at how survey respondents ranked their own communities in a number of criteria and weighed that against new and updated info Avenue collected for things like crime rates, property taxes and the number of grocery and drug stores in a community. This added data helped to make this year’s survey more thorough than Best Neighbourhoods 2010, with more measures available to compare one community to the next.
“I don’t think there’s any other way to put it than to say it is an improvement,” says Barry Davis, associate vice-president with Leger Marketing. “It’s a better reflection of Calgary’s opinion.”
