Community Details

Halifax is the capital city of Nova Scotia and the largest city in eastern Canada.  It’s home to eight universities and colleges, national and international corporate offices, and every urban lifestyle attraction a resident or visitor could desire. A safe and lively city, Halifax is where a diversity of people gathers to work, eat, drink, shop and celebrate.

Central Halifax is characterized by a mix of historic and modern architecture, reflecting the city's evolution over centuries.  At the foot of the city’s downtown, where it meets the harbour, the waterfront boardwalk is an urban pedestrian playground of restaurants, pubs, shops, cafes, public art beer gardens, and historic sites. Nature enthusiasts are also drawn to Halifax for its proximity to scenic beauty. Exploring the city's parks and green spaces provides a tranquil respite from urban life.
