The short portraits of the four (4) electoral districts of Ahuntsic-Cartierville based on Montréal en statistiques give you a first socio-economic picture of the people who chose to live in this particular borough.
Of course, the boundaries of the Montreal boroughs are man made and have often been modified during the course of our history. In addition, the electoral map is revised every 4 years, one year before the general election.
Nevertheless, each borough developed its own characteristics, its own personality and its own life. Some may be closer to your preferences and your liking, and this is fine, but each Montreal borough is definitely worth discovering.
