Montreal Districts


The term Montreal Districts is not used by the City of Montreal except when referring to electoral districts. We use the word district as a way to separate formal borough information from informal area information supplied by you and me.

The profiles of the Montreal Boroughs follow the electoral divisions of the City of Montreal such as they have been since January 1, 2006. The Montreal Districts, on the other hand, are a bit historical and descriptive and largely informative and conversational. This is the way this site has been planned "we build a city and then we ask people to join in".

For more information about Montreal, you may visit Sherlock, the municipal information bank and, for more statistics, you may visit Montréal en Statistiques.
