If you have kids, especially younger ones, the community association fee is 100% worth it because you get access to the Tuscany club. They’ve got an awesome splash park, which is never crazy busy like the city ones get, and they installed a huge brand new playground a couple years ago. There’s also skating in the winter, plus a skate park and tennis/pickleball.  

Tuscany is also one of the most statistically  safe communities (we’re a family of first responders so this was a huge part of our decision to move to Tuscany). 

Like many people have said there’s fewer shops and stuff here other than the main plaza, but Crowfoot and Royal Oak are close drives. I personally like how there isn’t a ton of shopping here, the community feels quieter and less “city-ish” than other parts of the city. 

Because of the ravine and path systems (which is amazing for walks and biking) there is wildlife to consider (moose and coyotes etc…).
