## Transit Infrastructure Density

Palliser contains 38 mapped transit stops, primarily located along Palliser Drive SW and 24 Street SW. These stops include directional designations such as eastbound, westbound, northbound, and southbound at various intersections. The concentration suggests a grid-based bus network serving the neighbourhood's main corridors.

The presence of Oakridge Station (EB) indicates a connection to a larger transit hub within the mapped boundary. However, the data does not specify route numbers, service frequency, or operating hours for these stops. This limits the ability to assess actual commute convenience or connectivity quality for residents in the area. Sources:

## Educational and Recreational Facilities

Three schools are mapped within Palliser: Nellie McClung School, John Ware School, and Captain John Palliser School. Additionally, five park points and three recreation facilities are identified, including Southland Leisure Center. The recreation category also includes two unnamed points labeled simply as Recreation in the dataset.

Southland Leisure Center offers programs such as Barre - parent & baby and Rec Adventures: fall day camp for ages 5 to 7. These offerings target young families and early childhood development. The school count does not establish catchment areas, quality ratings, or household composition preferences among local buyers or renters. Sources:

## City market context

From the Calgary market article, 22 September 2026:

Calgary's August 2026 real estate data reveals a market where falling supply is outpacing falling demand, pushing the sales-to-new-listings ratio above 60 percent. Despite this apparent tightness, apartment prices have corrected 13 percent from their 2024 peak, signaling a segment-specific softening that complicates the overall outlook. Calgary's August 2026 market shows a divergent signal: while total residential sales fell 16% year-over-year to 1,660 units, the sales-to-new-listings ratio pushed above 60% due to a sharper 10% drop in new listings. This suggests a short-term absorption spike rather than a broad-based demand recovery, as apartment prices remain 13% below their 2024 peak.
