The Evolution of the Village of Miscouche
La Base militaire de Summerside a eu un impact important sur la vie socio-économique de Miscouche pendant les 50 années de son existence (1941-1991). De nombreux paroissiens y ont trouvé de l'emploi et la communauté s'est diversifiée en y accueillant de nombreux nouveaux citoyens. En 1956, le village de Miscouche s'est constitué en municipalité. Aujourd'hui, la majorité de ses résidents occupent des emplois associés aux secteurs manufacturiers, de la vente et des services dans le village même ou dans la ville voisine de Summerside. En 1996, la langue maternelle était l'anglais pour 78 % des résidents et le français pour 22 %. Par contre, 66 % se sont déclarés d'origine ethnique française et 27 % de souche écossaise.
