'''Saint Paul''' is one of [[Dominica]]'s 10 administrative [[Parishes of Dominica|parishes]]. It is bordered by [[Saint Joseph Parish, Dominica|St. Joseph]] to the north, [[Saint David Parish, Dominica|St. David]] to the east, and [[Saint George Parish, Dominica|St. George]] to the south. It has an area of 67.4 km² (26.02 mi²), and a population of 8,397.<ref>[http://www.geohive.com/cntry/dominica.php Census statistics for Dominica] at GeoHive. Retrieved July 21, 2006.</ref>
The largest settlements are [[Canefield]] (where the island's [[Canefield Airport|second airport]] is located) and [[Mahaut]]. Another village in the parish, [[Massacre, Dominica|Massacre]], is so-called because of the historic massacre of Dominica's indigenous people by European settlers. [[Cochrane, Dominica|Cochrane]], [[Springfield Estate]] and [[Pont Casse]] (home of the island's central roundabout) are located in the interior.
The parish is also the site of a factory at [[Belfast Estate]], where [[Dominica Coconut Products]] ([[Dominica Colgate-Palmolive|renamed]] a few years ago to reflect its ownership under [[Colgate-Palmolive]]) operates.
