Nutana is Saskatoon's best neighbourhood:

- The city's best neighbourhood high street (Broadway Ave) with shopping, restaurants, bars, music venues
- Proximity to the river (parks, trails, summer days on the sandbars)
- Proximity to Downtown (a walk across the bridges on a summer night to a DT pub or festival A+)
- A true mix of housing from turn of the century mansions to apartments and condos
- Majestic elm tree canopies
- Walkable/bikeable

Other strong contenders:

- Riversdale, west of Downtown, is still rough around the edges and with an edgier and possibly more interesting character than polished Nutana. Very good restaurants and other attractions around 20th St, which may have more long-term potential than Broadway as a longer street. Proximity to the river, Victoria Park, River Landing, Downtown.
- Caswell Hill, also with some rough spots, but with a great park, tree-lined centre boulevards, and beautiful homes on rare hillside topography. 33rd St is the dog-eared main street but not without its charms and future potential.
- City Park with perfect narrow streets of character homes laid out along the river, great coffee, the river, weir, and train bridge, Kinsmen Park, and Downtown next door.
