Is Inglewood a good place to live?
Inglewood grades low on several counts. Its weakest subject is cost of living (D−). Getting around on foot or by bus is easy (A+). Overall, that makes a C−, good for #419 of 473 in Alberta. On that grade it does better than 17% of Canadian towns. Jobs & income is weaker too (D).
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.
