Nested querysets in Django - django

Question

Having a bit of trouble getting my Django app to display how I'd like it. My model looks like this:
class City (models.Model):
city_name = models.CharField(max_length=100, unique=True)
def __str__(self):
return self.city_name
class Portfolio(models.Model):
portfolio_name = models.CharField(max_length=20, unique=True)
city = models.ForeignKey(City, db_constraint=False, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
def __str__(self):
return self.portfolio_name
class Property (models.Model):
portfolio = models.ForeignKey(Portfolio, db_constraint=False, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
prop_name = models.CharField(max_length=250, unique=True)
def __str__(self):
return self.prop_name
I want my template to display each City, and under each City have its Portfolios, and under each portfolio have its Properties. I'm a bit new to Django, coming from AngularJS where I could do it like this to throw filters in my loops(obviously doesn't work in Django, at least how I'm doing it):
<ul>
{% for city in all_cities %}
<li>
{{ city.city_name }}
<ul>
{% for portfolio in all_portfolios| portfolio.city = city %}
<li>
{{ portfolio.portfolio_name }}
<ul>
{% for property in portfolio.all_properties| property.portfolio = portfolio%}
<li>
{{ property.prop_name }}
</li>
{% endfor %}
</ul>
</li>
{% endfor %}
</ul>
</li>
{% endfor %}
</ul>
Any ideas? There is probably a simple solution that I just can't verbalize yet. The only thing I've found to do it like this is to create a custom queryset for each city, then for each portfolio, but there has to be a better way to do this.

Ignoring the fact that it is not database efficient to do this, the easiest way is to just make sure you are accessing the reversed Foreign Key relationships correctly.
Do something like this:
{% for city in all_cities %}
...blah blah blah
{% for portfolio in city.portfolio_set.all %}
... Blah blah
{% for property in portfolio.property_set.all %}
... More blah
And you should be good to go
