Experience life in Bridgewater
Bridgewater has quickly become one of the fastest-growing, most sustainable, forward-thinking and inclusive towns in Canada. On the LaHave river, you can really experience the best of both worlds – the charm of small town living (including picturesque views, walkability, friendly neighbors and plenty of community events and celebrations), paired with the conveniences, facilities, and opportunity that you love about city living. Think Bridgewater might be right for you? Reach out to our Community Navigator!
