Question

Best places to live around University of Alberta with family?

Answer 1

Edmonton. or a small house in Beaumont.

Answer 2

any area around the campus is okay.  The only really not nice area of Edmonton is downtown just on the north side of the river.  Other than that, if you commute by car ....anywhere in the west end.  St Albert is a small burb northwest of edmonton (about 15 min drive) and it is "beaver cleaver" nice family place./  

If your looking for a brand new suburb type place the south end of town is booming with new subdivisions..  west of Ellersie area
