Connected daily life community signal
Public realm infrastructure across Calgary communities
Relative mapped presence of park seating, crosswalks, streetlights, public trees, parks, pathways and pedestrian connections within the official community boundary.
This page compares one public-data signal at a time. It is a shortlist tool rather than an overall ranking, and every leading record links to a full community profile with the underlying evidence and local context.

Published formula
Park seating density 17%, total seating 8%, crosswalk density 14%, total crosswalk locations 8%, streetlight density 14%, total streetlights 8%, public-tree density 9%, direct park access 5%, pathway network 5%, pedestrian-connection density 7%, pedestrian connection structures 5%.
This measures mapped infrastructure presence only. It does not measure condition, illumination, accessibility, pedestrian safety, comfort, maintenance or the quality of a specific route.
Evidence used
This is a direct comparison. The current ingredients include Parks seating assets, crosswalk locations, streetlight poles, public-tree inventory, park area and site measures, pathway length and sampled reach, City pedestrian connections and structures, official community boundaries.
