The Central Plain (North Antiguan: Senchraal Plien) is a region in Antigua. It is home to the majority of people in Antigua and Barbuda, with the highest concentration of settlements. Located in the eponymous geologic region, it stretches from St. John's in the northwest to English Harbour in the southwest. Most settlement in the area is based around All Saints Road and its offshoots. In 2011, the area was home to 44,097 people in about 92 square kilometres, about 52% of the national population. The main settlements are St. John's, Piggotts, All Saints, Swetes, Liberta, Falmouth, and English Harbour. The region makes up about a third of the country's area and stretches through all parishes except Saint Philip.
