Post offices
Canada Post offices confirmed to stand within the municipality, from data/post_offices.yml.
Algonquin Highlands is not below. No post office has been confirmed here, which is not the same as there being none. Offices are known at Dorset, Carnarvon, West Guilford and are not counted here: those settlements sit on or near a municipal boundary. Dorset is divided between Algonquin Highlands and the Township of Lake of Bays, and which side an address falls on is not something to decide from a place name. The marks are the highest and lowest of those 3, not of the county.

Which way is better
Contested. Counts of mapped features, several of them mapped unevenly by the County's GIS. Nothing on this page is ranked, and the bars are ordered by size rather than by merit.
