Where these sit province-wide

The same orderings the Nova Scotia areas hub draws, over every community with a market read — each one ordered by a single named metric, with that metric's figure beside every area. Carleton and Port Maitland appear below only where their own figures place them; an area absent from an ordering is an area whose figure for that metric we could not source, never a judgment.
