Quispamsis Mayor Murray Driscoll is all smiles thanks to the latest census data -- the population of Quispamsis increased by over 17 per cent to more than 17 thousand.
Driscoll tells CHSJ News he's not surprised by the increase but is a bit shocked at the rate of the growth.
He says the town offers many community services and activities at a very low tax rate -- the fourth lowest in the province.
He adds the town has plenty of land and he expects continued growth in the years to come.
