Hammond is a quiet, countryside community in Kings County where winding roads, hardwood ridges, and the Hammond River set the tone for an outdoors-forward lifestyle. Weekends often mean casting a line or walking interpretive trails with the Hammond River Angling Association, or loading up for a coastal day trip along the dramatic cliffs of the Fundy Trail Parkway. Despite the rural feel, daily needs are close at hand: arenas, shops, and youth sports in Quispamsis and Hampton, plus big-city employers and arts venues in Saint John, are all an easy drive.
Families will appreciate the strong public school network in the Anglophone South School District, with younger students often attending Hammond River Valley Elementary School. Many older students continue in nearby Hampton schools, supported by bus routes and a calendar full of extracurriculars—from robotics and music to cross-country running and alpine weekends at Poley Mountain.
Housing runs the gamut: classic farmhouses with barns, river-adjacent lots where you can launch a canoe at sunrise, and newer builds tucked along back roads. Local growers, community suppers, and seasonal festivals add a welcoming rhythm, while reliable commuting options make it feasible to live under starry skies and work in the city.
