List of communities in Saskatchewan

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Communities of the Province of Saskatchewan, Canada are incorporated towns, cities, villages, and resort villages and unincorporated organized hamlets and hamlets.[1] Regional rural forms of administration are rural municipalities.

Census Divisions are entities established by Statistics Canada for enumeration purposes, while Census Metropolitan Areas include cities with a population greater than 100,000 and their surrounding regions.

The administration of rural municipalities, towns, villages, resort villages, organized hamlets, and hamlets is regulated by The Municipalities Act;[2] the administration of cities is regulated by The Cities Act;[3] the administration of towns, northern villages, northern hamlets, and northern settlements (those in the Northern Saskatchewan Administration District[4]) is regulated by The Northern Municipalities Act.[5]

As of October 1, 2007, Saskatchewan had an estimated population of 1,003,299.[6]

[edit] Cities

In Saskatchewan, towns must have a population above 5,000 in order to be granted city status,[3] although in the early 20th century several centres such as Saskatoon and Regina were granted city status despite having a smaller population[citation needed]. A city does not automatically revert to town status if the population drops below 5,000; this only occurs if the city council requests it, the majority of electors vote to revert to town status, or the appropriate provincial minister is of the opinion that the reversion to town status is in the public interest.[3] The city of Melville retains city status as of 2008 despite dropping below 5,000 population in the 1990s. Kindersley, with a population that fluctuates around the 5,000 mark, has applied for city status in recent years.[citation needed]

As of 2008, there are 13 cities in Saskatchewan, counting Lloydminster but not counting Flin Flon.[1]

[edit] Towns

In Saskatchewan, towns are formed from villages or resort villages with a population of at least 500 people.[2] The council of the village or resort village must request the change to town status. When a town's population exceeds 5,000 people, the council may request a change to city status, but the change in incorporation level is not mandatory. Towns with shrinking populations are allowed to retain town status even if the number of residents falls below the 500 limit. For example, the towns of Fleming, Francis, and Scott have populations that have dropped under 500 people and are still qualified under town status. Towns with populations below the limit may, however, revert to village or resort village status if the town council requests it.

As of 2008, there are 147 towns in Saskatchewan.[1]
