Known as the "City of Lakes" due to the large number of lakes nearby, Dartmouth is located near Halifax. With a population approaching 75,000 residents, it has a strong economy, growing housing market, and well-educated residents, many of whom work for the nation's federal government. Attracting more people each year, Dartmouth has been recognized for its friendly nature, affordable housing, and vast number of cultural activities.
When seeking to buy Dartmouth real estate, buyers have many options from which to choose. As the downtown area has undergone revitalization in recent years, developers have built condos and townhouses near the business district, making them attractive properties for young professionals. But for those wanting a bit more quiet, the city has many well-established neighborhoods that are preferred by families, including Commodore Park, Port Wallace, and Brightwood. Featuring many multi-level homes with large lots, they can be purchased for between $200,000-$300,000, making them very affordable for first-time buyers.
As the city has undergone a revitalization, so have many of the local schools. From elementary schools to high schools, Dartmouth has invested heavily in smart technology to make the buildings more energy efficient, and has also equipped buildings with state-of-the-art classroom technology, enabling students to use their skills to learn in new and varied ways. Because of this, test scores and graduation rates have improved, and several teachers have received awards from regional education associations.
Once residents are done with work and school and have some free time, they have a variety of options from which to choose. If a day of shopping is on the agenda, head to Dartmouth Crossing, where you'll find a variety of local specialty shops. But if you're in the mood for some high-flying adventure, take a tour of Shearwater Aviation Museum, where you can get up close and personal with a variety of vintage aircraft. Finally, if you simply want to enjoy some quiet time in a beautiful setting, visit Sullivan's Pond or Leighton Dillman Park, where you can see plenty of beautiful flowers, birds, and much more.
