What's the difference between a great neighbourhood and the BEST neighbourhood?

What factors make that truly winning combination — amenities, price, curb appeal, low crime rate and intangibles such as friendliness of the neighbours?

Answer Avenue's Best Neighbourhoods Survey (conducted in association with Leger Marketing) and let us know what you think makes a neighbourhood great and then tell us how your own community stacks up.

See this year's results for Calgary's Best Neighbourhoods

Avenue and Leger Marketing will then crunch the numbers and use the responses to weight the factors plus include even more data from the City on the location of parks and amenities, crime statistics, tax assessments, average lot size, and more to determine Calgary's Best Neighbourhood.

For those communities that are new enough that comprehensive data is not available, Avenue will also use the survey responses to questions about what makes a great neighbourhood for a story on Best New Communities for 2012.
