Sunnyside is great place to live. It might seem like it is a shady neighborhood but its really not there is a ton of way worse places downtown and all over Calgary that are far less safe for your family , just checkout the place on a saturday or Friday night if your thinking about moving to a new neighborhood you will see firsthand a what its like that way, and don't shy away from speaking to the locals, they will be your future neighbours anyways. Always remember that stuck up neighbour's who refuse to get involved for any reason can be dangerous to have too. Peace be with you my friends.
The walk to Kensington could be nicer, but it's still pleasant. Not too many cars, so the walking experience is good overall.
Nice C-train station that is near the Kensington area. You can come through downtown and spend some time at Prince’s Island Park and then across the Peace Bridge. And a short walk to the eclectic and interesting area of Kensington. Though technically the station is Sunnyside. It’s is easily accessible and convenient to use. At this time the station looks clean and is well lit.
It was busy everyone walking around across the road at the park Riley park, walking their dogs, children, riding bicycles, enjoying the sun today, it was +27 today, so it's good to get out and enjoy the weather while it lasts, hopefully soon they will start planting the flowers in Riley park.
It is calm and quiet here - we were in the morning and were amazed by the quietness of the area. Clean train station.nFrom here you can walk to the Bridge of Peace.nnThis is the first stop after the downtown free range of Ctrain
