Evans Ridge in Evanston Calgary

Evans Ridge is a new subdivision of the existing NW Calgary community of Evanston. Evans Ridge is a family oriented neighbourhood with lots of green spaces and pathway networks, good for leisure and staying connected with the rest of the community.

This spacious NW neighbourhood puts its residents on the edge of Calgary, where escaping from the fast paced lifestyle of the city is an easy task.

Being on the edge in Evans Ridge doesn’t mean complete isolation though, because Stoney Trail is a ring road encircling Calgary that allows for quick commuting times to and from the rest of the main traffic routes.

Evans Ridge is host to a wide variety of different types of homes ranging in style, size and price. In other words, there is something for anyone looking to live in a suburban Calgary community.
