Key Facts

Centre-du-Québec is an administrative region located in the central part of the province of Quebec, Canada. Positioned roughly in the geographic center of the province, this region serves as a transitional area between the urbanized regions of Montreal and Quebec City to the east and west, and the more rural Eastern Townships to the south. With an approximate population of around 250,000 people spread across its territory of approximately 7,000 square kilometers, Centre-du-Québec represents one of Quebec's important agricultural and industrial heartlands. The region is divided into 5 regional county municipalities (MRC) - Arthabaska, Bécancour, Drummond, L'Érable, and Nicolet-Yamaska - which together contain numerous municipalities, towns, and rural communities. Historically developed along the Saint Lawrence River and its tributaries, Centre-du-Québec features a diverse landscape that includes fertile plains ideal for agriculture, particularly dairy farming and crop production, alongside emerging industrial and service sectors in its urban centers. The region's strategic location between major urban centers has contributed to its economic development while maintaining its distinct cultural identity within Quebec.
