The town is the 3rd biggest in the Moray council location after Elgin and Forres as well as within the interpretations of data published by the General Register Office for Scotland was placed at number 75 in the checklist of population estimates for settlements in Scotland mid-year 2006. Buckie lies basically equidistant to Banff to the eastern and Elgin to the west with both communities being around 17 miles (27 kilometres) far-off whilst Keith lies 12 mi (19 kilometres) to the south by road. Geographically, the community is, broadly talking, set out in a direct fashion, adhering to the shoreline. There is a lower shore area and an upper area. Essentially Buckie itself is the main part of the neighborhood lying between the Victoria Bridge under which flows the Buckie Burn at the western end of West Church Street, the eastern end of Cluny Harbour as well as above the coast location. To the west of Victoria Bridge as well as the Buckie Burn is Buckpool, which was previously called Nether Buckie, and on the shoreline, west of Cluny Harbour, in between Baron Street as well as the Buckie Burn mouth, there is the Yardie. Promptly above the Yardie on the Buckie side of the melt is the Seatown. To the west of the Yardie is Harbourhead. To the eastern of Cluny Harbour lie Ianstown, Gordonsburgh and also Portessie additionally well-known locally as The Sloch (traditionally The Rotten Slough), which reaches in the direction of Strathlene. These areas were, to all intents and purposes, separate fishing negotiations that gradually combined over the course of time. A brand-new town was set out over the shoreline in the 19th century as well as this is the rump of Buckie.
