Located only a 3-hour drive north of Toronto, North Bay is a safe and welcoming community of approx. 52,662 people. You'll quickly discover that this is a vibrant city offering a healthy and balanced environment for working, living and raising a family. Here you'll find beautiful scenery, four distinct seasons of activity, a diverse economy, a state-of-the-art regional health centre and multi-level learning establishments.
With an increasing number of individuals accessing the programs and services offered through the North Bay & District Multicultural Centre and the established North Bay Local Immigration Partnership (formerly North Bay Newcomer Network), the city has grown beyond just a welcoming community. North Bay is now a leading community of support offering settlement services to new residents from all parts of the world.
The settlement services of the North Bay & District Multicultural Centre are here to help every step of the way and can be contacted online, or by calling 1.877.495.8931.
