About Merritt
The town
Merritt had 7,051 people in 2021, down 1.2% from 2016, on about 26 km² of land. It grew at the forks where the Coldwater River meets the Nicola River, where William Henry Voght took up land in 1872; it became a city in 1911. Coal mining carried it until the 1930s, then forestry; ranching runs through the valley, and Douglas Lake Ranch, founded in 1886, is Canada's largest working cattle ranch. Interior Health's Nicola Valley Hospital and Health Centre has eight acute beds and a 24/7 emergency department; check Interior Health for its current status. Inside the boundary the City handles zoning, building permits and Agricultural Land Reserve applications. In November 2021 an atmospheric river sent both rivers over their banks and destroyed most of the City's Coldwater dikes; the flood program the City adopted in 2022 includes new dikes, pump stations and managed retreat along the Coldwater.
Around it
The rural valley falls in the TNRD's Electoral Areas M and N (Beautiful Nicola Valley North and South), where the regional district issues building permits. Monck Park, on Nicola Lake 22 km north of town off Highway 5A, has camping, a beach and boat access. Kentucky-Alleyne Park, 38 km south by Highway 5A, has two stocked trout lakes in grassland and dry forest. Highway 5, the Coquihalla, runs south to Hope, and Highways 5A, 8 and 97C also reach Merritt. Kamloops Airport has scheduled flights on Air Canada, WestJet, Pacific Coastal and Air North.
