A central neighbourhood like City Park or Nutana can put a buyer within a short drive of downtown without crossing a bridge at all from some streets, and that convenience is priced into the comparable sales the Saskatchewan REALTORS Association tracks by area.
A newer suburb near a major roadway, like Stonebridge along the south end of Circle Drive, can offer a similarly short drive time to specific employment areas while still being priced closer to new-construction levels than to central, character-home pricing.
The commute premium, if there is one, is best measured against a specific commute route rather than assumed from a neighbourhood's general reputation. Get your hand-reviewed valuation from Joel Dyck.
