Saint George is a geographic parish in Charlotte County, New Brunswick, Canada,[4] located between St. Stephen and Saint John.

For governance purposes, the southern part of the parish is part of the incorporated rural community of Eastern Charlotte,[5] while the north and the Red Rock Road area are part of the Southwest rural district,[6] both of which are members of the Southwest New Brunswick Service Commission.[7]

Prior to the 2023 governance reform, it comprised one town and two local service districts (LSDs), all of which were members of the Southwest New Brunswick Service Commission (SNBSC).[8]

The Census subdivision of the same name includes all of the parish except St. George.[1]
