    Shoot, I did do a ninja edit to “property prices”. Maybe you loaded it first.

    The grocery prices are madness, and my local place was selling almost-rotten produce until recently. Gas can be cheaper or more expensive depending on other factors. It’s still so much more expensive in the city; I know because I desperately want to move and keep track.

    and house prices were high due to a total lack of development and it being a somewhat touristy area.

    Yeah, Banff or Canmore would not be cheap. If you’re in the depressing middle of nowhere the story changes.

      It was Blairmore in CNP.

      I hate driving so the prospect of driving half an hour to get groceries was torture.

      My condo has 3 grocery stores within walking distance and 3 low cost grocers within biking distance.

      I didn’t appreciate that until I moved away lol
