YYC-Wander

Independent dashboards and practical tools about Calgary’s housing, wages, schools, safety, and long-run trends.

A Data-Driven View of Life in Calgary

YYC-Wander is an independent Calgary data project built with public open data, interactive dashboards, and practical lookup tools.

This site combines Calgary-focused insights on property tax, baby names, housing, crime, schools, public health, wages, and long-run urban trends.

These dashboards are not about just one conclusion — they reveal patterns across time, communities, and regions.

Different people, needs, and situations will notice different signals — because these dashboards and tools are meant to be explored.
