Is Dalmeny a good place to live?

Households here earn well (A+). It is a safe place by the numbers (A). Homes were valued at a median $332,000 at the 2021 census, 3 times the typical household’s income. Elsewhere it is close to typical: B for health and C+ for walkability.

Figures: home values and income: Statistics Canada, Census 2021. With fewer than 2,500 residents, Dalmeny gets subject grades but no overall one among Canadian towns.

Rents here are the metro area's average, shared by every town and neighbourhood in it. No School Grade: this province doesn't publish comparable results school by school. Health is graded on the health region's survey figures and life expectancy, with the distance to hospital giving the town its own spread.
