University of Alberta is better than University of Calgary. The city of Calgary, though more expensive than Edmonton (rents/cost of the houses), is nicer to live in.

Uni of Alberta stands top 3 in Canada. Very well planned campus and bus services from every area.

Indian grossary is more expensive than Calgary.
House cost are similar.

Edmonton is colder than Calgary.

Job availibility is depend on your field.
