How long are commutes to major tech offices downtown?
From most inner-city neighbourhoods, you’re looking at a 5–15 minute walk, bike ride, or C-Train ride. For example, East Village is 3–5 minutes to Platform Calgary, Mission is about 10 minutes to Stephen Ave, and Bridgeland is just one C-Train stop from downtown. Living in these communities means you can often leave the car at home.
What should I consider when buying a condo downtown?
Review condo fees, parking, and EV charging availability carefully. Amenity-rich buildings in Beltline and East Village often have higher monthly fees, but also provide gyms, concierge, and social spaces. We’ll help you compare buildings and bylaws to find the right fit for your lifestyle and budget.
Are these communities good for car-light living?
Yes—if you want to walk, cycle, or use transit, downtown Calgary neighbourhoods are ideal. Beltline, East Village, Mission, and Sunnyside all have excellent walk scores, bike lanes, and direct access to the C-Train.
