The Greater Montreal Area is the most populous metropolitan area in the Canadian province of Quebec. As of 2006, Statistics Canada identifies Montreal's Census Metropolitan Area (CMA) (land area 4,259 km²) as Canada's second most populous with a population of 3,635,571 [1]. A slightly smaller area of 3,838 km² is governed by the Communauté métropolitaine de Montréal (CMM) (English: "Montreal Metropolitan Community", a translation rarely used). This level of government is headed by a president (currently City of Montreal mayor Gérald Tremblay). The CMM has a land area and an estimated population of 3,493,485[citation needed].

The outer ring is composed of low-density municipalities located on the fringe of Metropolitan Montreal. Most of these cities and towns are semi-rural.
