Burton is a Canadian rural community in Sunbury County, New Brunswick.
Located on the Saint John River immediately downstream (southeast) of Oromocto on New Brunswick Route 102, Burton is the shire town of the county and is the location of the Sunbury County court house.
Burton has an elementary school for children from Kindergarten to grade 2, Burton Elementary School (New Brunswick), but older children go to various other Anglophone West schools located in Oromocto.
Burton also has a court house and a general store, Ultramar. The first gas station in Burton was opened by the late Mr. Bonnar, eventually run by his son and sold to Mr. Finnan in the 1970s. It remained a full-service Petro-Canada until its closure in 2003.
Located adjacent to the Canadian Forces Combat Training Centre at CFB Gagetown, noises from artillery, helicopters, and other military equipment are common aspects of daily life in Burton, especially near Hamilton Road which becomes a dirt trail leading into the training area, across a former military rail line now used as a tank run.
