Livingston

The houses in Livingston still carry that new-build feel — clean sidewalks, freshly planted boulevard trees, streets sized for a neighbourhood still growing into itself. Construction equipment is part of the daily texture; some blocks are polished, others mid-build, and residents pick up the local geography quickly: where the new parks are coming in, which routes connect where. For daily errands, most trips run into neighbouring communities. No Frills in Carrington and the Real Canadian Superstore in Coventry Hills are both a short hop, and the Vivo for Healthier Generations centre in Country Hills Village — pools, fitness, drop-in classes — draws families from across the north end.
