Summary
| Description |
West Perth is a municipality in Ontario, Canada, situated in Western Perth County, just west of the city of Stratford. The former town of Mitchell and townships of Logan, Hibbert, and Fullarton all amalgamated into one large municipality on January 1, 1998. Municipal offices, administration, and services are based in Mitchell. In 1837 a log building was built along Huron Road marking the first settlement in the area. By 1842, this building had been replaced by a hotel and new settlers and business had located in Mitchell which was eventually incorporated as a Village in 1857 and a Town in 1874. By 1901, the population had grown to 2,200 and in 1918, a multiple room Public School was built to house students from the growing population. Mitchell is the largest community within the municipality. Smaller communities include Bornholm, Brodhagen, Dublin, Fullarton, Russeldale, St. Columban and Staffa. According to the 2011 National Household Survey, the largest economic sectors by number of workers employed are manufacturing (800 workers); health care and social assistance (660 workers) and construction (445 workers). Other industries in the region employing more than 200 workers are wholesale trade, retail trade, and transportation and warehousing. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/West_Perth,_Ontario en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Text_of_Creative_Commons_... |
