Towns and Cities

When you immigrate to Nova Scotia, you can choose to live in a city, a town or a village. These are run by municipal governments that take care of city planning, snow removal, garbage pickup, local taxes, traffic and parking issues, sewage and water and other local concerns.

Each type of community has its own unique charms. Take your time to get to know them upon your arrival.
