The dominant factor in its growth has been and still is affordability. 

Cole Harbour is located on the eastern boundary of Dartmouth and is about a 20-40 minute drive to downtown. The drive time is dependant upon the amount of traffic approaching and on the bridges to Halifax. During rush hours there can be some congestion, but the traffic does move steadily most of the time.

There are some wonderful shopping, entertainment and dining alternatives in both the Cole Harbour area and within 5-10 minute drive. Some of the best shopping in metro is located in Dartmouth.

There is a great variety of house styles and prices to choose from and there is definitely a house to fit everybody’s needs and price range in the area.
