We are a tight-knit community of 265 residents located on the Isthmus of the Avalon Peninsula on the east coast of Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada.
Community spirit runs high in our little town and we all take pride in the wealth of programs, amenities and natural assets that make Come By Chance an attractive place to live and visit.
We are fortunate to have major industry, including the North Atlantic oil refinery, on our door steps, providing substantial employment and business opportunities, along with a strong tax base that allows us to implement and sustain town infrastructure and unique community-focused programs.
