Overview
Livingston sits north of Stoney Trail NE, and Centre Street N splits it in two. North of 144 Avenue, homes west of Centre Street have NW addresses and homes east of it have NE ones. The piece south of 144 Avenue, which reaches down to Stoney Trail, is NE throughout. About three addresses in five end in NE, and all of Livingston falls in Ward 3.
Across 6 Street NE to the east is Lewisburg, and Coventry Hills lies south, on the far side of the freeway. Carrington is the western neighbour, and for part of its length the west edge with Carrington follows no road at all. No road marks the north edge either.
Brookfield Residential broke ground here in 2016 and is still building. Every home belongs to the Livingston Homeowners Association, which runs the Livingston Hub on Livingston Way NE and charges a yearly fee. There is no school or grocery store open inside yet.
In the twelve months to August 2026, 170 homes sold here: 111 detached houses at a typical $695,000, 30 townhouses at $417,700, 17 semi-detached homes at $570,000 and 12 apartments at $284,500.
David’s take
The vibe
The Hub and the fee behind it
The Livingston Hub, at 1248 Livingston Way NE, belongs to the Livingston Homeowners Association. The association describes it as a 35,000 square foot building with a gymnasium, a banquet room and community kitchen, meeting rooms, a skate change area, and space for a daycare and a café. Outside are skating rinks, a splash park, a playground, tennis courts and an amphitheatre. Members show a card to get in, and adults in a member household may sign in five guests a day at most. Fire Station 44 works out of the same address.
Every Livingston homeowner is automatically a member, and the membership is what the fee pays for. For April 1, 2026 to March 31, 2027, it is $455 plus GST, or $477.75, and the association says it applies to all homes in Livingston, condominium units as well as houses. In the association’s own words, “A registered encumbrance on all property titles ensures compliance with the Articles of Association, making membership required for every property owner in Livingston.” The money goes to the Hub and its park, programmes and events, the community’s entry features and maintenance in some of its public green spaces.
Brookfield has three representatives on the association’s board, beside seven residents. Until the community is substantially complete, the association says, Brookfield holds the president, treasurer and secretary positions. A condominium owner in Livingston pays two separate charges, the association fee and a monthly condo fee to the corporation. What each one covers is laid out in homeowners association and condo fees in Calgary.
The Livingston Community Association is separate. It was registered in 2021, has no hall, and runs events and speaks for residents on City matters. Joining is optional: $30 a year for a family or $15 for one person.
Building from 2016
The land south of 144 Avenue came into the City in 1989, and everything north of it in 2007. The first homes were built in 2016. The middle half of today’s homes were built between 2019 and 2023, and 2021, 2022 and 2024 were the biggest years. The NE side has most of the 2017 and 2018 homes, and the NW side’s busiest years came later, in 2021 and 2024.
Inside the community are 532 vacant lots and about 290 acres of farm and undeveloped land, much of it along Centre Street and 6 Street NE.
The lake and the Greenway
Livingston Lake is on the NE side, inside the largest park in the community, which has four soccer fields. Smaller ponds run through the north end of the NE side, and the City maps wetland beside the lake and along the west edge. The Livingston Greenway, a City regional park, follows 1 Street NE south of 144 Avenue, also on the NE side, and regional pathways cross the community.
The City has no off-leash area in Livingston. Brookfield’s site points to an off-leash dog park along 144 Avenue, which the City allowed in 2021 as a five-year temporary use.
Households at the 2021 census
In May 2021, when the census was taken, Livingston was not quite five years old and had about 1,330 households. Households at the 2021 census averaged three people (Calgary: 2.6), and 25% of residents were 14 or younger, against 18% citywide. Of those households, 88% owned their home (Calgary: 69%), and 94% of owners had a mortgage, against 65% citywide. For 2020, typical household income was $116,000 (Calgary: $98,000). At that census, 97% of residents were living somewhere else five years earlier.
Shops on the way
As of November 2026, no grocery store or shop is open inside Livingston. Brookfield says construction is underway on Livingston Centre, a retail area at 14390 1 St NE, and names a FreshCo among the shops it lists as opening soon. The City’s development permit for the site covers a supermarket, a gas bar, a liquor store, child care, health care and restaurants.
For now, the shopping is in the communities around Livingston. Carrington has a No Frills on Carrington Plaza NW, Coventry Hills has a Real Canadian Superstore on Country Village Road NE, and Panorama Hills has a Save-On-Foods. Country Hills Village holds Vivo and the Country Hills Library.
Housing stock
Livingston’s 2,639 detached houses, on the City’s 2026 assessment, sit on a typical lot of 3,477 square feet. Beside them stand 201 freehold townhouses, 270 condominium townhouse units in 31 complexes and 408 half-duplexes, with a separate title for each half. The 272 apartment condominium units are at two addresses, on Livingston Common NE and on Lucas Way NW. The Livingston Heights rental apartments and two apartment-townhouse properties are on 1 Street NW.
The NE side has nearly all the half-duplexes and most of the condominium townhouses, and the NW side is mostly detached houses. The show home village is on 1 Street NW.
At the 2021 census, 71% of Livingston’s occupied homes were single-detached houses (Calgary: 55%), 18% were row houses (Calgary: 10%) and 10% were semi-detached homes, against 6% citywide.
A townhouse here can be a condominium unit or a freehold home on its own lot, and a condo fee comes with the first kind. Over the twelve months to August 2026, condo fees ran to a typical $253 a month on the townhouses that had one, and a typical $414 on the apartments. The association fee is added to either. Your lawyer’s read of the title settles which kind of townhouse you’re buying, and it’s also where any restrictive covenant on the lot turns up.

Getting around
Livingston’s main north-south road is Centre Street N, and 144 Avenue crosses it. Livingston Way NE and 1 Street NE are the long streets on the NE side, and Lucas Boulevard NW and 1 Street NW on the NW side. Stoney Trail runs along the south.
Route 137 Livingston runs through the NE side, on 1 Street NE, Livingston View NE, Livingston Hill NE and 144 Avenue NE, every day of the week, with North Pointe at the other end. Routes 115 Symons Valley Parkway and 124 Evanston stop on 144 Avenue all week. Their stops on 144 Avenue NW, at the south edge, are the only ones on the NW side.
Livingston has no CTrain station, and none is built close by. On the City’s Green Line plans a 160 Avenue N station sits on Centre Street inside the community, with “TBD” as its construction stage. The City says expansion north of downtown “will depend on Council direction and the availability of funding.”
The University of Calgary and the Municipal Building downtown are about the same drive: 22 minutes to the university and 23 to downtown, from the middle of Livingston without traffic, as of November 2026. The drive to Foothills Medical Centre is 24 minutes, and the quickest of the four, to Calgary International Airport, is 15.
| Downtown | 23 min |
|---|---|
| University of Calgary | 22 min |
| Foothills Hospital | 24 min |
| Airport (YYC) | 15 min |
Schools
No school of either board is open in Livingston, so every designated school is outside it, in older communities to the south and south-west. Centre Street makes no difference here: NE and NW addresses share the same schools on both boards.
As CBE publishes it in November 2026, every Livingston address is designated to Cambrian Heights School, 640 Northmount Dr NW in Cambrian Heights, for kindergarten to grade 6. From grade 7 to grade 9 the school is Colonel Irvine, at 412 Northmount Dr NW in Highwood, and the high school is James Fowler, in Highland Park at 4004 4 St NW. If Cambrian Heights School can’t accommodate a Livingston student, CBE’s overflow table names North Haven School, 4922 North Haven Dr NW in North Haven. In a letter dated June 10, 2026, CBE told the Colonel Irvine community that an attendance-area adjustment or a grade configuration change there was possible within 18 months, and that “No decisions have been made.”
A new school is on CBE’s list: Livingston Elementary School, kindergarten to grade 6, at 49 Howse Drive NE inside the community, with a target completion of 2029-2030. In CBE’s words, “Confirmed opening dates, final designation areas, grade configurations, and programming will be determined closer to the school opening.” No home is designated to it yet.
On the Catholic side, as CSSD publishes it in November 2026, a Livingston child starts at Mother Mary Greene School, at 115 Edenwold Drive NW in Edgemont. Grade 7 brings a move to St. Jean Brebeuf School, 5030 Northland Drive NW in Brentwood, and the last three years are at St. Francis High School, 877 Northmount Drive NW in Collingwood. CSSD gives Livingston no other senior high option, and under its 2027-2028 high school boundaries the community stays with St. Francis. CSSD lists no new school for Livingston.
On both boards, the move to a new school comes between grade 6 and grade 7. To confirm a single house, put it through CBE’s Find a School and then the CSSD school finder. Calgary’s attendance areas, what overflow means for a new registrant and how a choice programme differs from a designated school are all in the schools resource.
Cambrian Heights School
Public, K-6
Every Livingston home, on either side of Centre Street, starts public school at Cambrian Heights and stays to grade 6, as CBE publishes it in November 2026. The building is well south of Livingston, in Cambrian Heights at 640 Northmount Dr NW. CBE's Find a School shows whether that is still the answer for a given house.
Colonel Irvine School
Public, 7-9
Every Livingston student on the public side moves here at grade 7 and stays through grade 9, as CBE publishes it in November 2026. The school stands in Highwood, at 412 Northmount Dr NW. A June 10, 2026 CBE letter to its families said changes there were possible and that "No decisions have been made." Check one house at a time in CBE's Find a School.
James Fowler High School
Public, 10-12
Livingston's designated public senior high, as CBE publishes it in November 2026, the same for NE and NW homes. The school sits in Highland Park, at 4004 4 St NW. Before a teenager registers for grade 10, run the address past CBE's Find a School.
Mother Mary Greene School
Catholic, K-6
Where Catholic students from anywhere in Livingston, NE or NW, go for kindergarten through grade 6, as CSSD publishes it in November 2026. It stands in Edgemont, at 115 Edenwold Drive NW. CSSD's school finder will show it against the house you have in mind.
St. Jean Brebeuf School
Catholic, 7-9
As CSSD publishes it in November 2026, Livingston's Catholic students spend grades 7 to 9 here, at 5030 Northland Drive NW in Brentwood. To see it listed for the home you're buying, use CSSD's school finder.
St. Francis High School
Catholic, 10-12
CSSD's grade 10 to 12 school for all of Livingston, as CSSD publishes it in November 2026. CSSD gives Livingston no other senior high option. Its 2027-2028 boundaries leave Livingston with St. Francis. You'll find it at 877 Northmount Drive NW in Collingwood. Ahead of grade 10, confirm the address in CSSD's school finder.

How much is the Livingston homeowners association fee?
The Livingston Homeowners Association charges $455 plus GST, or $477.75, for its year from April 1, 2026 to March 31, 2027. The association says it applies to all homes in Livingston, condominium units included, and that it is secured by an encumbrance registered on every property title, so it is not optional. It pays for the Livingston Hub, its park and other community amenities. The board sets the fee each year, and it was $450 plus GST the year before. Condo fees, where a home has them, are a separate charge on top.
Is Livingston in NE or NW Calgary?
Both. North of 144 Avenue, Centre Street N runs through Livingston, and addresses west of it end in NW while addresses east of it end in NE. Everything south of 144 Avenue is NE. About three addresses in five are NE. The Livingston Hub, Livingston Lake and the shops under construction are all on the NE side. In a listing search, tick both NE and NW to see the whole community.
Who can use the Livingston Hub?
Members of the Livingston Homeowners Association, and every Livingston homeowner is one automatically. The association says members bring their membership card to get into the Hub and its park, and each household’s adult members may sign in as many as five guests a day. If a home is rented out, the owner or the tenants can hold the membership privileges, but not both. The Hub is at 1248 Livingston Way NE.
Where do Livingston children go to school?
Every designated school is in an older community to the south or south-west, and NE and NW addresses have the same ones. On the public side, as CBE publishes it in November 2026, that means Cambrian Heights School (kindergarten to grade 6, in Cambrian Heights), then Colonel Irvine School (grades 7 to 9, in Highwood), then James Fowler High School (in Highland Park). On the Catholic side, as CSSD publishes it in November 2026, it means Mother Mary Greene School in Edgemont up to grade 6, then the Brentwood school, St. Jean Brebeuf, for grades 7 to 9, with grade 10 starting at St. Francis High School in Collingwood. CBE plans a Livingston Elementary School at 49 Howse Drive NE. Its target completion is 2029-2030, and its designation area is still to be drawn.
Can you buy groceries in Livingston?
Not yet. As of November 2026, Brookfield says construction is underway on Livingston Centre, a retail area at 14390 1 St NE, and it names a FreshCo among the shops it describes as opening soon. Until something opens, grocery shopping means the communities around Livingston: a No Frills in Carrington, a Real Canadian Superstore in Coventry Hills and a Save-On-Foods in Panorama Hills.
Will Livingston have a CTrain station?
The City’s Green Line plans show a station called 160 Avenue N on Centre Street, inside Livingston, and the City gives its construction stage as “TBD.” The City says expansion of the Green Line north of downtown “will depend on Council direction and the availability of funding.” No CTrain station is built anywhere close to Livingston today. Route 137 Livingston serves the NE side, and Routes 115 and 124 stop on 144 Avenue.
