Is Tweddle Place a good place to live?

Tweddle Place’s overall C+ puts it #320 of 473 in Alberta. Nationally, it does better than 39% of Canadian towns. Crime is the sore point (C−). Homes are dear (C−). Fewer journeys need a car (A−). Its schools beat most (B+).

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.
