    It is the hub centre of the New Brunswick Panhandle region.
    It is in in close proximity to both the borders of Maine and Quebec.
    It is the third-largest predominantly Francophone city in North America outside of Quebec.
    It is home to a lot of picturesque scenery, due to its location on the Madawaska and Saint John rivers.
    It amalgamated with the communities of Saint-Basile, Saint-Jacques and Verret to form the modern city (1998).
    Similar to Windsor, Ontario and Detroit, Michigan, you can take the bridge out of downtown and cross into Madawaska, Maine on the other side of the Saint John River.
