them.

Data in this report have been specially tabulated from the Statistic Canada 2016 Census of Canada, by allocation of the Statistics Canada block face

reference points to PEDs

Includes persons who reported being an Aboriginal person (First Nations/North American Indian, Métis or Inuk/Inuit) and/or having Registered or Treaty

Indian status, and/or membership in a First Nation or Indian band. Estimates associated with this variable are most affected by the incomplete

enumeration of Indian reserves or settlements. Permission for enumeration was not given for Saddle Lake 125, and data is not available for this region.

The global non-response rate (GNR) for Edmonton-South West is 2.7%. The GNR combines both complete non-response (household) and partial non-

reponse (question) into a single rate. The GNR is an indication of data quality, where a smaller GNR suggest greater accuracy and a lower risk of non-

response bias. When the GNR is 50% or above, the data are supressed. The GNR is identified for each region. A higher GNR indicates the need for user

caution.

Includes persons who indicated only one Aboriginal group (i.e. First Nations, Metis or Inuit).

Totals may not add to 100% due to random rounding.

All persons under the age of 15 years are considered 'never married' and not living common-law.

Census family is defined as a married couple and the children, if any, of either and/or both spouses; a couple living common law and the children, if any, of

either and/or both partners; or a lone parent of any marital status with at least one child living in the same dwelling and that child or those children. All

members of a particular census family live in the same dwelling. A couple may be of opposite or same sex. Children may be children by birth, marriage,

common-law union or adoption regardless of their age or marital status as long as they live in the dwelling and do not have their own married spouse,

common-law partner or child living in the dwelling. Grandchildren living with their grandparent(s) but with no parents present also constitute a census

family.

Language spoken most often at home at the time of the Census. More than one language can be reported if the languages are spoken equally often.

Caution is advised when using for historical comparability purposes.

Includes persons who are not First Nations, Metis or Inuit, but who reported Registered or Treaty Indian status and/or membership in a First Nation or

Indian band.

Endnotes:

Income statistics presented in this report are based on 25% sample data from 2016 Census. Statistics Canada has also released income data using a

100% sample, as such, Alberta income statistics in this report may not match data presented elsewhere. Income statistics from the 100% sample was not

available at the PED level at the time of publication.

The sum of the ethnic groups in this table is greater than the total population count because a person may report more than one ethnic origin.

(38) The income situation in relation to a specific low-income line, with those below the line considered to be in low income. Low income concepts are not

applied in certain areas based on census subdivision types (i.e. Indian reserves). Substantial in-kind transfers (i.e. subsidized and/or band housing), barter

economies and/or consumption from hunting, farming or fishing, could make the interpretation of low income statistics difficult in these cases.

Includes trades certificates/diplomas such as pre-employment or vocational certificates from brief trade programs completed at community colleges,

institutes of technology, vocational centres and the like.

Includes unemployed persons aged 15 years and over who have never worked for pay or in self-employment, or who had last worked prior to January 1,

2015.

Refers to the general nature of the business carried out where the person worked, classified according to the North American Industry Classification

(NAICS) 2012.

unincorporated business and/or professional practice in the calendar year of 2015. Full-time full-year workers are those who worked 30 hours or more per

week for at least 49 weeks in the calendar year of 2015.

Total income of all household members, before income taxes and deductions for the calendar year of 2015.

The low-income measure after tax (LIM-AT) is a fixed percentage (50%) of median-adjusted after-tax income of households. The household after-tax

income is adjusted to take economies of scale into account. The adjustment for different household sizes reflects the fact that a household's needs

increase, but at a decreasing rate, as the number of members increases. LIM-AT is not related or comparable to the low-income cut-offs (LICO) in the

2006 Census. Direct comparisons with low-income estimates from other sources is discouraged; however, it is appropriate to compare this low-income

data for the 87 PEDs presented here.

The main discipline or subject of learning for the person's highest completed postsecondary qualification, classified according to the Classification of

Instructional Programs (CIP) Canada 2016.

Refers to whether a person aged 15 years and over was employed, unemployed or not in the labour force during the week of May 1-7, 2016.

two or more people who live in the same dwelling and are related by blood, marriage, common-law union, adoption or foster relationship. A couple may be

of opposite or same sex. By definition, all people who are members of a census family are also members of an economic family. However, members of an

economic family need not be members of the same census family.

Includes only people who have this as their highest educational qualification. Excludes persons with a postsecondary certificate, diploma or degree.

Refers to the status of a person with regard to the place of residence on the reference day, May 10, 2016, in relation to the place of residence on the same

migrants, who moved to a different jurisdiction (such as a city or town) but remained within Canada. External migrants include persons who lived outside

Canada at the earlier reference date.
