Really, the mostly developed communties are ones that were approved before the land use changes. The communities that are affected by the new land use changes have really only started developing, and what is started,is really only the single family parts. Mahogany, Skyview Ranch, Sage Hill, Seton etc are planned to have density like has not been seen in a new community in Calgary for quite some time. Once those communties are developed out, then we can judge them.
But why do we need to do this to the new communities and forget about the existing ones in the inner city? We need to up the density of the inner city as well. I see this happening soon to the ones that haven't started.

Kitsilano in vancouver has undergone an amazing transformation in the last 10 years.
