Calgary's housing has gone kind of out of control too. It's slowed down now, but for a while it was crazy. I own my house in Calgary and my property value went up by ~250k since I bought in 2018. Lucky for me but kind of insane growth

I'm in Calgary too, and housing has definitely jumped a lot since Covid, but we're still not quite at the Vancouver/Toronto insanity of $1MM for a 1-bedroom apartment (and hopefully it stays that way!).

Yeah, I agree. As much as I like seeing the value of my property grow, I don't think it's overall very good for the city or society if no one can afford homes
