Guelph is divided into six wards[3] for the purposes of municipal organization:
Ward 1 (St Patrick's) comprises the easternmost area of Guelph, bound in the west by Victoria Road.
Ward 2 (St. George's) is between the Speed River and Victoria Road, and north of the Eramosa River.
Ward 6 (St. James) comprises the southernmost area of Guelph, bound in the north by Stone Road, Kortright Road West, and Arkell Road.
Ward boundaries were updated in 2021 to reflect changes in population distribution and future growth; however, the number of wards and councillors remains the same for the 2022 Ontario municipal elections.[4][5]
