Who fits here
Garneau draws buyers who want true walkability without sacrificing character. University of Alberta faculty, researchers, and graduate students make up a large share of buyers, but the neighbourhood also attracts young professionals and empty-nesters who value inner-city access to the river valley, Whyte Avenue, and a genuine pedestrian lifestyle. Detached character homes appeal to those wanting a sense of history; condos serve buyers prioritising low-maintenance ownership close to campus and downtown. Buyers here tend to prize neighbourhood identity over square footage.
