Port-aux-Perdrix
Port-aux-Perdrix (/ˌpɔɹt oʊ ˈpɛəɹdɹiː/, French: /ˌpɔʁ o pɛʁˈdʁi/) is a unincorporated community located in Hauteterre county, Iylan Province, Rhodevus. It is situated on the southern shore of Partridge Bay (Baie-du-Perdrix), an inlet of the Lutetian Ocean on the eastern coast of the NAME peninsula. After reaching a population peak of 2,076 in 1925, Port-aux-Perdrix's population has gradually fallen, counting 639 residents in 2015. The village lies in the Francophone areas of Rhodevus, and a large majority of its inhabitants count French as their mother tongue. Port-aux-Perdrix relies heavily on fishing as a source of income and is the main employer in the community. It is feared that the village's population will continue to decrease, accelerated by the opening of a cannery in a nearby town (WHERE?), pulling more jobs away from the community. The mayor and residents have pleaded government officials for funding and resources to keep their childhood home alive.
