Is Coventry Hills a good place to live?

Residents are healthier than most (A). The drawback is cost of living (C+). Overall, that makes an A−, good for #85 of 473 in Alberta. It comes out better than 80% of Canadian towns. Elsewhere it is close to typical: B− for safety and B− for jobs & income.

Rents here are the metro area's average, shared by every town and neighbourhood in it. Safety less sure: this is the whole city's figure, because the city doesn't publish open neighbourhood crime rates. Health is graded on the health region's survey figures and life expectancy, with the distance to hospital giving the town its own spread.
