COMMUNITY :

Amherst, NS sits in the heart of the Maritime Provinces. Our rich, diverse history is reflected in the town's well preserved architecture dating to a period of industrial vibrancy in the early 20th century. Today, Amherst and surrounding communities like Sackville, NB boast a busy cultural scene, boutique shopping, and four full seasons of outdoor recreation. Our county stretches from the Bay of Fundy, home to the highest tides in the world and attractions such as the Joggins Fossil Cliffs, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, to the Northumberland Strait which has beaches with the warmest water north of the Carolinas. Between the coasts, outdoor recreation includes hiking, biking, golfing, and down hill skiing. For those who love travel, the Moncton and Halifax international airports are 35 and 90 minutes away, respectively. It takes less than an hour to travel to Prince Edward Island and 2 hours to visit our provincial capital, Halifax. Compared to larger urban centers, Amherst has higher affordability and a relaxed pace of life to allow for an exceptional work life balance. Amherst has a great location, a rich history and bright future - you can see why Amherst proudly promotes itself as “Active, Healthy Amherst!”. #seewhyweloveit
