NHCA’s Mission

The Northern Hills Community Association enhances the quality of life of the community by enriching and empowering the diverse communities of Northern Hills through advocacy, education, and provision of opportunities for engagement.

We currently serve residents in 5 communities in North Central Calgary: Country Hills, Country Hills Village, Coventry Hills, Harvest Hills and Panorama Hills.

These communities are located in north central Calgary, bordered by Deerfoot Trail to the east, Beddington Trail to the west and south, and Stoney Trail to the north. The current population of these communities is in the order of 65,000 people and encompasses a wide variety of ethnic and socio-economic backgrounds.

The area is currently served by City Councillors (Ward 3), one MLA (Calgary-NorthernHills), and two MPs (Calgary-Skyview and Calgary-Nose Hill).

There are currently two golf courses in the area, as well as many restaurants and retail stores. The Landmark cinema and the Vivo recreation facility, co-located with the Country Hills Public Library, are located in the heart of the area, by the multi-services building (police, fire) and the North Pointe park and ride, the home of a future Green Line North LRT station. The area also includes commercial/retail and light industrial business parks: Stoney Industrial areas (which include “The District” development, and are planned for the Nose Creek valley, both north and south of Country Hills Blvd) and the planned Aurora Business Park.

The Northern Hills area is home to several elementary and middle schools, both CBE and CCSD, and two  high schools, Notre Dame and North Trail. Some children in the area bus to several different elementary, middle and high schools, dependent on community of residence. Please visit the CBE or CCSD websites for information.
