HART - 2006 Census of Canada - Selected Characteristics of Census Households for Housing Need - Canada, all provinces and territories at the Census Division (CD) and Census Subdivision (CSD) level [custom tabulation]

<p> For more information, please visit HART.ubc.ca. </p> <p> <h3>Housing Assessment Resource Tools (HART)</h3> </p> <p> This dataset includes 18 tables which draw upon data from the 2006 Census of Canada. The tables are a custom order and contains data pertaining to core housing need and characteristics of households. 16 of the tables each cover a different geography in Canada: one for Canada as a whole, one for all Canadian census divisions (CD), and 14 for all census subdivisions (CSD) across Canada. The last two tables contains the median income for all geographies. Statistics Canada used these median incomes as the "area median household income (AMHI)," from which they derived some of the variables within the Shelter Costs/Household Income dimension. </p> <p> Included alongside the data tables is a guide to HART's housing need assessment methodology. This guide is intended to support independent use of HART's custom data both to allow for transparent verification of our analysis, as well as supporting efforts to utilize the data for analysis beyond what HART did. There are many variables in the data order that we did not use that may be of value for others. </p> <p>The dataset is in Beyond 20/20 (.ivt) format. The Beyond 20/20 browser is required in order to open it. This software can be freely downloaded from the Statistics Canada website: https://www.statcan.gc.ca/eng/public/beyond20-20 (Windows only).

It combines total non-response (households) and partial non-response (questions). A lower GNR indicates a lower risk of non-response bias and, as a result, a lower risk of inaccuracy. The counts and estimates for geographic areas with a GNR equal to or greater than 50% are not published in the standard products. The counts and estimates for these areas have a high risk of non-response bias, and in most cases, should not be released.</em> </p> <p> <b>Universe:</b><br /> Full Universe: <br /> Private Households in Non-farm Non-band Off-reserve Occupied Private Dwellings with Income Greater than zero.<br /><br /> Households examined for Core Housing Need: <br /> Private, non-farm, non-reserve, owner- or renter-households with incomes greater than zero and shelter-cost-to-income ratios less than 100% are assessed for 'Core Housing Need.' Non-family Households with at least one household maintainer aged 15 to 29 attending school are considered not to be in Core Housing Need, regardless of their housing circumstances. </p> <p> <b>Variables:</b><br /> <b>Housing indicators in Core Housing Universe (3)</b><br /> 1.
