Community Feature: Inglewood
Inglewood is a trendy and highly sought after location in Calgary’s downtown core. Rich in history, activities, amenities and events, this neighbourhood has no shortage of lively people and passionate businesses to keep you entertained. Since it is so close to downtown, having so many shops, restaurants and businesses is a huge perk of living in Inglewood, especially if you work downtown. Located along 9th Avenue, the ability to move in and out of the community is simple, not to mention the plethora of bus stops and close train stations to use transit to venture into other parts of the city. There are a handful of public schools in the area, along with french immersion options for all ages. With so much to love, we highly recommend Inglewood as your next destination or possibly the next place for you to call home.
