Is Nutana Park a good place to live?

Nutana Park’s standout strength is jobs & income (A). With a B overall, Nutana Park sits #31 of 102 in Saskatchewan. It comes out better than 59% of Canadian towns. Health outcomes beat most towns (B+). What holds it back is safety (C−). The typical owner put their home at $380,000 in 2021: 3.6 years of the median household’s income.

Figures: home values and income: Statistics Canada, Census 2021.

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. 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.

How Nutana Park grades
