Economy (2006 pop.: 1,111)〔''Nova Scotia Community Counts:'' (Statistical profile )〕 is an unincorporated rural community situated along the north shore of the Minas Basin/Cobequid Bay, at approximately 45°23'N, 63°54'W, in Colchester County, Nova Scotia. In the late 19th century, it was known for its shipbuilding industry. ==History== The place name comes from the 18th century Acadian ''L'Économie'', an adaptation of the Mi'kmaq First Nation word for the location, ''kenomee'', meaning 'a place of land jutting into the sea'. Mi'kmaqs presumably named the area thus because the shoreline juts out into the Minas Basin at what is now known as Economy Point. East of this point marks the beginning of Cobequid Bay. Mi'kmaqs hunted and gathered throughout the region for thousands of years prior to the settlement of Acadian families in the Economy area.
