    About Saskatoon

    Saskatoon is situated along the banks of the South Saskatchewan River, on Treaty 6 Territory and the Homeland of the Métis. Saskatoon is a vibrant, livable city known for its natural beauty, friendly community, and diverse cultural and leisure offerings. Although Saskatoon is the largest urban centre in the province with a population of over 300,000, its residents enjoy short commute times and some of the lowest apartment rental and housing prices in the country.
