The Smallest Town, With A Population Of Just Four With Two Streetlamps
If you've ever dreamed of living the quiet life, you'll no doubt be jealous of the residents of Tilt Cove, Canada.
This tiny town in Newfoundland and Labrador, on Canada's east coast, has a population of just four.
All four residents are part of the town's government, with the mayor Don Collins claiming there 'is a lot to do to keep it on the straight and narrow'.
Tilt Cove was once a thriving copper mining town, which boasted a population of 2,000 people.
However, the mine closed in 1967 following an accidental collapse, leaving most of the residents jobless - forcing them to leave town forever.
Today, Tilt Cove still has postal, rubbish collection and road maintenance services - as well as two streetlamps.
It also has a museum that houses pictures, letters and artifacts that detail the town's history. Named The Way We Were, the museum was built single-handed by Collins using local timber as a 40th birthday present for his wife.
Margaret Collin's family have been here since 1813. Her brother and his wife are the only other two residents in Tilt Cove.
