City of Medicine Hat
The city has grown to a population in excess of fifty thousand and our economy is firing on all cylinders. As a result of the entrepreneurial spirit of our forefathers, Medicine Hat invested and developed its own gas and electrical utilities in the early 1900's. Careful stewardship and sound strategic business decisions have resulted in these utilities providing the community of Medicine Hat with an unmatched quality of life. Medicine Hat residents and businesses experience the best energy prices in the country. We also boast one of the lowest municipal tax rates by comparison to any similar sized or larger community.
The scenic South Saskatchewan River valley is the backdrop for Medicine Hat, a community with over 100 parks, 80+ kilometres of trails, five golf courses and a multitude of superior sport/leisure facilities. Arts, culture and music play a key role in the lives of our residents. In September 2003, construction began on a new $32,000,000 Arts and Heritage Centre in the City's downtown scheduled for completion by 2005. In addition, we have a deep and interesting history, which we invite you to discover through our varied tourism destination locations.
Whether you are planning a visit, interested in a new business venture or considering a location for industrial expansion, Medicine Hat is a community of choice, progress and opportunity. Come and experience the "Hat".
