St. John's is a collection of distinct neighbourhoods. Each neighbourhood is defined by its history, landscape and unique cultural heritage. Together, neighbourhoods create the character of our city.
Our city is growing and becoming more diverse. Smaller communities, local cultural areas and neighbourhoods are the core building blocks for a city. Our goal is to help make St. John's more livable with a wide range of amenities, programs and services. We want to support your quality of life.
Our profiles show you the basic characteristics and services in 28 defined neighbourhoods. We used defined boundaries - like major roadways, former municipal borders and rivers and lakes - to define each neighbourhood. The goal was to make it easier to service an area, not to make judgments about where a neighbourhood starts or ends.
Only you can decide what defines your neighbourhood!
