Cumberland West was a provincial electoral district in Nova Scotia, Canada, that elected one member to the Nova Scotia House of Assembly. It was formed in 1949 when Cumberland County was divided into three new districts, the other two being Cumberland Centre and Cumberland East. It existed until 1993, when it was redistributed to include all of Cumberland Centre and a portion of Cumberland East, at which point it was renamed Cumberland South.[1]
