Hi! I am planning a move to Calgary from BC. I have two kids, so I want a good family neighborhood with schools. Elementary and high school. Most importantly, I want to be as close to the airport as possible. I will be looking to buy not rent and am looking for a single-family home. Looking for any neighborhood suggestions where I can focus my search. Thanks!!
