Location of Saskatchewan in Canada
A topographic map of Saskatchewan, showing cities, towns, rural municipality borders, and natural features.

Communities in the Province of Saskatchewan, Canada include incorporated municipalities, unincorporated communities and First Nations communities.

Types of incorporated municipalities include urban municipalities, rural municipalities and northern municipalities. Urban municipalities are further classified into four sub-types – cities, towns, villages and resort villages. Northern municipalities, which are located in the Northern Saskatchewan Administration District (NSAD), are further classified into three sub-types – northern towns, northern villages and northern hamlets. Rural municipalities are not classified into sub-types.[1]

Types of unincorporated communities include hamlets and organized hamlets within rural municipalities and northern settlements within the NSAD.[1]

The administration of rural municipalities, towns, villages, resort villages, organized hamlets and hamlets is regulated by The Municipalities Act,[2] while the administration of cities is regulated by The Cities Act.[3] Administration of northern towns, northern villages, northern hamlets and northern settlements (those within the NSAD)[4] is regulated by The Northern Municipalities Act.[5]

In the 2021 Census, Saskatchewan's communities combined for a total provincial population of 1,132,505.[6]

Municipalities

Saskatchewan presently has 786 municipalities of various types (urban, rural and northern municipalities) and sub-types (cities, towns, villages, resort villages, northern towns, northern villages and northern hamlets).[1]

Urban municipalities

Map of urban municipalities by type in Saskatchewan as of 2013
Distribution of Saskatchewan's 16 cities, 146 towns, 264 villages and 40 resort villages

Saskatchewan has 466 urban municipalities, which includes the sub-types of cities, towns, villages and resort villages.[1]

Cities

In Saskatchewan, towns must have a population above 5,000 in order to be granted city status.[3] A city does not automatically revert to town status if the population drops below 5,000; this only occurs if the city council requests it, the majority of electors vote to revert to town status or the appropriate provincial minister is of the opinion that the reversion to town status is in the public interest.[3] The city of Melville retains city status as of 2010 despite dropping below 5,000 population in the 1990s.

Saskatchewan has 16 cities,[1] including Lloydminster and not including Flin Flon.

Towns

In Saskatchewan, towns are formed from villages or resort villages with a population of at least 500 people.[2] The council of the village or resort village must request the change to town status. When a town's population exceeds 5,000 people, the council may request a change to city status, but the change in incorporation level is not mandatory. Towns with shrinking populations are allowed to retain town status even if the number of residents falls below the 500 limit. For example, the towns of Fleming, Francis, and Scott have populations that have dropped under 500 people and are still qualified under town status. Towns with populations below the limit may, however, revert to village or resort village status if the town council requests it.

Saskatchewan has 146 towns.[1]

Unincorporated hamlets

In Saskatchewan, a hamlet is an unincorporated community that is under the jurisdiction of a rural municipality.[29] It has at least five occupied dwellings situated on separate lots and at least 10 separate lots, the majority of which are an average size of less than one acre.[2]

The Government of Saskatchewan recognizes three different types of hamlets generic "hamlets", "special service areas" and "organized hamlets".[29] Some organized hamlets in Saskatchewan are recognized as designated places by Statistics Canada, while unorganized hamlets are not.

Hamlets

Generic hamlets in Saskatchewan are under the jurisdiction of a rural municipality and do not have any decision-making powers or independent authorities.[29]

The following are hamlets that are neither special service areas nor organized hamlets.

Special service areas

Like a generic hamlet, a special service area is under the jurisdiction of a rural municipality and does not have any decision-making powers or independent authorities. Unlike a generic hamlet, a special service area may form its own electoral division within the rural municipality and may have a different tax regime within the rural municipality compared to a generic hamlet.[29]

A ghost town is a town that once had a considerable population, that has since dwindled in numbers causing some or all of its businesses and services to close, either due to the rerouting of a highway, railway tracks being pulled, or exhaustion of some natural resource.
