About
Saguenay is the major city of northern Quebec, spread around the majestic Saguenay Fjord. It groups three boroughs — Chicoutimi, Jonquière and La Baie — each with its own centre and identity. The region is shaped by the aluminium industry, by a student life carried by Cégep de Jonquière and UQAC, and by exceptional access to nature. The cost of living is among the most affordable in the province. This section gathers the bilingual guides for settling in Saguenay: finding housing, getting around with the bus network, finding work in the region's industries, registering children for school and enjoying the outdoors. You will find every step explained one at a time.
