Calgary

In 2022, Calgary was named as the third most liveable city in the world alongside Zurich, ranking ahead of every other city in Canada and North America. It’s also one of the safest cities in the country as well as the world’s cleanest city and the sunniest city in Canada, averaging more than 333 days of sunshine a year.

With the Rocky Mountains and Banff National Park just an hour away, Calgary is also a great base for exploring some of the most beautiful sights that Canada has to offer, while staying put means you can have more time to sample the delights of the 6,000 restaurants and theaters. You’ll have money to spare for these too as Calgary is the ninth most affordable city in the whole of North America
