Livingston Calgary is one of the newest communities in the city’s far north, launched by Brookfield Residential as a large-scale build along the Centre Street N corridor above Stoney Trail. It’s a NW-quadrant community per the City’s classification, and most of the housing is post-2015 detached and attached — the average year built across the community’s 4,572 properties is 2021, which makes Livingston one of Calgary’s newest neighbourhood data points. The average assessed value sits at $646K, and the year-over-year change is 2% — well below the citywide 15.2% run, but that gap is a data artifact of a community mid-build rather than a signal about the market’s direction. Livingston is part of Calgary’s 219 community profiles.

Why two numbers?

Assessment-roll averages in Livingston have climbed 14.8% over the last 3 years, from $543,367 in the 2023 roll to $623,859 in the 2025 roll. The Average Property Assessment in the snapshot above ($646K) is drawn from the live current-year assessment feed, which uses a broader aggregation than the year-specific rolls in the table — small differences between the two are normal.

Livingston holds 3,985 residents across 4,572 properties, though the property count is running well ahead of the residents-in-place figure — a signature pattern of a mid-build community where lots and unfinished units register as properties before they hold anyone. The age split confirms the pattern: about 1,130 kids and teens are under 19, and the 20-to-39 band is the biggest single group at 1,720 — the age band that fits a new-build community where young families and couples are buying their first houses. The 40-to-64 group runs about 965, and residents 65 or older sit near 165 people, well under 5% of the community. That's one of the lowest senior shares in Calgary and reads on the ground as almost entirely young families and young couples with small children — no long-time residents or established multi-generational households here yet. For a similar newer NW community that's a few years further along its build-out, the Carrington profile is the closest reference on age curve.

Living in Livingston

Livingston reads as a working construction site as much as a residential community at street level. Most of the housing is post-2015 detached, attached townhome rows, and a growing share of newer semi-detached inserts on standard suburban lot sizes, with active construction visible on most interior streets. There’s no CTrain inside Livingston; the future Green Line north extension would eventually serve this part of the city but isn’t yet built, and residents today rely on Centre Street N buses connecting to the wider network, or drive out to Stoney Trail for regional access. The community’s landing pad for shopping, services, and community events is a residents’ association centre run by the community itself — the first purpose-built anchor for the new-build phase before larger commercial development follows. Winter driving north of Stoney Trail is a different rhythm than inner-city Calgary: wide open sight lines, colder mornings that hold longer into the day, and a stronger dependence on the ring road than on the older arterial network south of the city limit. The community’s north edge borders open agricultural land at the city boundary — a real practical constant for Livingston that inner-city communities don’t share, with prairie wind coming across unimpeded fields, winter drift lines on empty sections, and summer sight lines running into the country north of the city. For a similar far-north community a few kilometres east with an older established profile for reference, the Beddington Heights profile is the closest match on geographic setting.

Things to do in Livingston

Livingston is an actively-building community without established retail or entertainment anchors of its own yet — day-to-day amenities are still being added as the housing phases fill in. Residents currently drive to the nearest existing commercial nodes: the CrossIron Mills outlet mall a short drive north across the northern city limit in Balzac, and the older Beddington Trail and Country Hills Boulevard retail corridors a few minutes south. Parks inside Livingston are neighbourhood-scale rather than large City-owned open space — the community plan includes green corridors and small parks set between the residential phases, and one of the larger open spaces is a stormwater pond system that doubles as a park backdrop. School catchments for Livingston kids currently route to schools in adjacent communities across the Calgary Board of Education and Calgary Catholic School District networks; new school buildings are being planned as the community’s population grows to support them. Any specific business inside Livingston itself is easiest to find through the Livingston business directory, which pulls current City of Calgary business-licence records for the community.

The Livingston real-estate read

Livingston’s average assessed value sits at $646K, right around the citywide $732K baseline. The year-over-year change is 2% — well below the citywide 15.2% — but that’s a data artifact of the community’s mid-build state: newly-completed units register at their finishing-year assessed value alongside older lots that were built earlier, and the mix drags the year-over-year average toward flat. Building activity is the dominant story: 1,742 permits filed since 2024, one of the highest permit counts in Calgary right now, with an overwhelming new-construction share as Brookfield’s building phases continue. The permits mix is overwhelmingly new-construction with almost no demolitions — an almost pure additive pattern typical of a mid-build community, rather than the teardown-and-rebuild pattern you see in older inner-city Calgary neighbourhoods. The community will keep changing at street level for several more years — new streets, new subdivisions, and new lot sizes filling in the plan’s outer edges. For a similar-value NW community for reference on price, the Greenwood/Greenbriar profile is the closest match; for a more established NW community at a comparable price point, the Dalhousie profile is the closer reference on age and stability.

FAQ

Common Questions About Livingston

Why are there two average values on this page?

The page shows two related but distinct figures because they come from two different official City of Calgary datasets with different aggregation methods. The Average Property Assessment (in the snapshot at the top of the page and in the "vs Calgary Average" card) is drawn from the City's live current-year assessment feed, using a broad aggregation across all residential parcels. The Year-End Assessment Roll figures in the Property Values chart and table below come from a separate dataset that captures each year's official year-end roll, using a narrower per-year methodology. Both are official data — the small difference between them is normal and reflects the different aggregation windows. For an at-a-glance current value, use the Average Property Assessment; for authoritative year-over-year trends, use the Assessment Roll.

What's the average house price in Livingston?

The average assessed value in Livingston Calgary is $646K, right around the citywide average of $732K. Most of the housing is post-2015 detached and attached homes, with an average year built of 2021, and the community is still actively adding new-construction inventory.

How is the Livingston real estate market?

Livingston's assessed values changed 2% year-over-year against the citywide 15.2% — a soft-looking number that reflects the community's mid-build state, where newly-completed units register alongside older lots and drag the year-over-year average toward flat rather than a true market signal.

Is Livingston safe?

Livingston records 39.1 disorder events per 1,000 residents, below the citywide baseline of 54 per 1,000. The Safety section above shows the current Calgary Police Service counts and how Livingston compares with its far-north neighbours.

Is Livingston a good place to live?

Livingston suits buyers who want a new-build home on the far-north edge of Calgary at a price around the city average. The trade-off is a community still under construction, no CTrain access yet, and a longer drive into the core; the payoff is newer housing, a young resident base, and expanding amenity space.

What is Livingston known for?

Livingston is known for two things: it's one of Calgary's newest far-north communities, planned and built out by Brookfield Residential along the Centre Street N corridor above Stoney Trail, and it's currently one of the most active new-construction communities in the city — with 1,742 permits filed since 2024.
