Maclean's magazine has published their annual list of the best communities to live in in Canada.

It seems the Foothills is in the middle of the pack, and down to the lower end of the spectrum.

Foothills County comes in at 281 out of 415 communities.

Higher income, high property values and relatively low crime are pluses for the County, but it's low on the list.

High River comes in at 206th, and Okotoks at 205th.

Overall, the survey says Burlington, Ontario is at the top of the list, while Mountainview County which includes Olds and Didsbury comes in last at 415th.
