## Educational and Recreational Infrastructure

Six schools are mapped within Lake Bonavista, including St Boniface Elementary School and Lake Bonavista School. One childcare facility, Creative Learning Center Preschool, is also identified in the dataset. These educational points provide foundational access for families with young children in the immediate vicinity. The specific catchment areas and program offerings remain outside the scope of this amenity count analysis.

Forty-seven recreation facilities support community activities, with Frank McCool Arena offering skating lessons for preschoolers and kids. The arena hosts programs for ages three to six during the Fall 2026 season. Additional recreation points include generic facilities and specialized venues like Chill Billiards. This infrastructure supports varied interests from youth sports to adult leisure activities within the neighbourhood. 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.
