Quality of Life

Low cost of living, pleasant climate, unique architecture, and a beautiful, scenic countryside featuring historic churches and a monastery bearing testimony to the Township's rich Scottish heritage, while rousing special events carry on the "joie de vivre" of the French traditions.
