BEST LIVING AREA IN EDMONTON

MTLGLV

Can someone with experience send me the ranking list for best living area?
No price limit (it can be super expensive for one hourse even though it is not located in the prestigue area, and it can be not top notch pricy but it is located in the upscale area)
No Feng Shui factor (even though the location does not fit Feng Shui practice in Chinese Culture, it can be considered best living area as long as accetpable and nominated at a higher ranking living area by real estate as well as residents in general)
Thanks

Most upscale subdivisions are in riverbend OR you can try looking at Glenora or somewhere around the Valley View Drive (nearby the Valley zoo)

Thank you. So Riverbend is called West Vancouver in Vancouver and Glenora is called Richmond in Vancouver. Am I right? Or you can provide different opinion?

Glenora 更像 Vancouver 本身，都是破房子，但很贵。如果你特有钱，可以翻建。

Are those numbers address of an apartment suite?  If so, most people will assure you that 81 st-127 Ave is not one of the good areas in Edmonton.

Thank you so much for all these valuable information. I will do my work one by one with my feel.
Wanted to know the concept of communities in Edmonton.

How about communities in Edmonton? Do they come with gated, manned gated or just a name for an area, named it as communities.

爱城比较安全，围墙小区比较少。我所知的只有2个。

Thank you. What about the taxes at Edmonton? E.g. for the house asking for 1,925,000
" G  t0 d" l7 O  h- A( s) G" GDon't get me wrong that I will consider buying this one. It is way too expensive. Just want to have an idea what will be the yearly taxes for such kind of house at the prestigue living area. Thanks

小黄

这个房子市政府估值115万，大约8~9千的地税吧。

MTLGLV

In Edmonton, do you have mulnicipal tax and School Tax? Or just one tax. Thanks for your information.
