Located on the Yellowstone River in the secluded suburbs of Montana, Livingston is a thriving community in mountainous terrain. Between the mountain views, riverfront relaxation, and welcoming community, residents appreciate the laidback atmosphere of this small town. Situated along Interstate 90, locals can easily commute into nearby metropolitan areas such as Bozeman, located just 26 miles west of town. Though Bozeman is home to fantastic amenities, Livingston offers a few unique attractions as well, such as the Shane Lalani Center for the Arts.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
