title: Boroughs of Quebec City
text: # Boroughs of Quebec City
  
  Quebec City is divided into six arrondissements or boroughs. These boroughs are the result of several waves of amalgamation and reorganization of the political boundaries of Quebec City.
  
  * La Cité-Limoilou
  * Les Rivières
  * Sainte-Foy–Sillery–Cap-Rouge
  * Charlesbourg
  * Beauport
  * La Haute-Saint-Charles
  
  The six boroughs are further divided into 36 quartiers ("neighbourhoods"), which are as of 2005 numbered instead of named.
  
  ## 2002–2009
  
  From January 1, 2002 to October 31, 2009, the city had eight boroughs: La Cité, Les Rivières, Sainte-Foy–Sillery, Charlesbourg, Beauport, Limoilou, La Haute-Saint-Charles and Laurentien. The boroughs of La Cité and Limoilou were merged on November 1, while the borough of Laurentien was dissolved and divided between Sainte-Foy–Sillery–Cap-Rouge and La Haute-Saint-Charles.
