What is your
favourite thing
about living in
Okotoks?
It’s close to the
mountains.
It’s close to
a major centre and you’re
only half an hour from the
foothills.
Robbie Bailey, resident “
I love to live in the
community where I
work. My favourite
thing is the park system. We
love to bike and run and it’s
right outside our door. We’re
close to the city, and I think
Okotoks has great community
and family events.

With Okotoks, people
are more willing to go out on a
limb to help people. I like that
our town pushes community
spirit and volunteer involvement.
Bob Button, resident

I moved here
because it’s like
home. It’s the
same size. I like the amount of
recreational activities in town,
the green space and parks.
Alicia Wilson, resident

I just like
being away
from the city,
that’s why I moved here.

got some great family restaurants.
