Nine Mile River is an unincorporated community in the Canadian province of Nova Scotia, located in East Hants Municipality in Hants County. It takes its name from the river which flows through it.[1][2] It is District 9 for the Municipality of East Hants, and currently served by Councillor Eldon Hebb.
Nine Mile River is home to a small United Church and a volunteer fire department.
The area now encompassing Nine Mile River was divided into Lower Nine Mile River and Nine Mile River from 1976 until 2006, when the name "Lower Nine Mile River" was rescinded and the two communities became one. The area of Renfrew, a ghost town known for its gold mining history, became a locality of Nine Mile River in 2007.[1]
