Kent is a geographic parish in the northeastern corner of Carleton County, New Brunswick, Canada.[2]

Prior to the 2023 governance reform, for governance purposes it was divided between one village, two local service districts, and part of one town, all of which were members of the Western Valley Regional Service Commission (WVRSC).[3]

The Census subdivision of Kent Parish includes all of the geographic parish except the two municipalities.[1]
