Evanston also just had two k4 elementary schools open which is good (we have a daughter who's 2 yrs old), albeit the public one is in the south part of the neighborhood, a good 2.5kms from phase 27.

I agree with earlier points that a very new neighborhood like Cornerstone or Livingston could be barren neighborless streets for some years given how new it is and how the economy is. I like to think optimistically and long-term but not sure if I have the patience.

I definitely care about having easy access to hwy 2 to go see family up in Coilerville and the airport and then most importantly Stoney trail to get out west.
One more thing to check on schools is to see if they are currently capped for enrolment and what the process is for getting in if entitlement is capped (lottery, first come first server, etc) and if the entire neighbourhood is designated for that school.
