Swift Current is the 24th best place to live in Canada.

That's according to an annual list by MoneySense Magazine.

Online Editor Trevor Melanson said “It's not about which city is the hippest or if you have alot of money it really is kind of catered middle-class Canadians and people who want to own a. It's based on hard data.”

"The cities that end up at the top it's not that they have one great thing about them. Usually it's because they just scored above average on a long list of things. So the reason Swift Current scored well, like other cities that scored well, is simply because it kind of succeeded across the board."

Melanson says Swift Current shot up from 50th to 24th largely because of our population growth numbers this year compared to last.

Our city also scores high in affordable housing and jobless rate.
