Why make Waskatenau your home?
1. Low taxation
2. Close proximity to visit or commute to larger centers: Edmonton (1
hr), Fort McMurray (3 hrs), Lamont (20 mins), Smoky Lake (15 mins),
Fort Sakatchewan (40 mins), Cold Lake (2 hrs)
3. Compared to larger 'urban' centers, the cost of
living in Waskatenau is substantially lower particularly with respect to owning /
renting homes and the costs of participating in recreational activities
i.e. baseball, curling etc.
4. Many opportunities to start a small business with
a minimal capital
5. Very low crime rate, safe place to live and raise a
family
6. Many recreational opportunities and facilities for all ages
that are very close by i.e. Long Lake Provincial Park, Iron Horse Trail,
Alberta's Lakeland etc.
7. Good business core and amenities to service day to day needs
8. A clean, friendly and progressive community with great spirit and
pride
9. Excellent community facilities
10. Increased access to participate in social, work and
volunteer opportunities that are not as easily available in
larger communities i.e. council, fire department - here you can make a
difference while enjoying country life at its best! |
