- Articles and reports: 17-20-00022026001Description: The Canadian Social Environment Typology (CanSET) is a geographic classification tool to compare neighbourhoods across Canadian Census Metropolitan Areas and Census Agglomerations. It provides three levels of neighbourhood classifications based on combinations of 30 socioeconomic, demographic, ethnocultural and housing variables from the Census of population. Each social environment cluster is a group of similar dissemination areas and represents a unique neighbourhood type. The CanSET data comes with definitions of each neighbourhood type so that users can compare health and social outcomes by neighbourhood characteristics. The CanSET classification includes data and user guide for the 2016 and 2021 versions. Select the version closest to the year of the outcome data. The 2016 CanSET classification is not directly comparable to the 2021 CanSET classification.Release date: 2026-03-19

- Articles and reports: 75-006-X202500200001Description: This study uses the Canadian Index of Multiple Deprivation (CIMD) and Census neighbourhood-level income data to examine the issues of flood exposure and socioeconomic disparities at a neighbourhood level. More specifically, this study seeks to further explore the demographic and socio-economic characteristics of areas that have been impacted by flooding over the past four years, as well as whether or not these flooded areas have experienced changes in levels of socio-economic deprivation between 2016 and 2021.Release date: 2025-01-29
- Articles and reports: 82-003-X202400900001Description: Active commuting (AC) to and from work is associated with numerous health benefits, through increased physical activity. This study examined whether occupation types and part-time work, by sex, were associated with AC in a population-based sample of Canadian workers. This study examined the associations between occupational classifications, part-time work, and AC (i.e., walking, cycling) and public transit use, in a nationally representative sample of Canadian adults, while controlling for other relevant sociodemographic characteristics (e.g., education, income, urbanity). This study also explored how associations between occupational classifications and AC differed by sex and how AC rates may have changed over time.Release date: 2024-09-18

- Articles and reports: 82-003-X202100500001Description: Residential greenness has been associated with benefits to health, such as lower risk of mortality, cardiovascular disease, obesity, adverse birth outcomes, asthma and better psychological health. However, the variation in greenness across socioeconomic and demographic characteristics in urban areas of Canada has not been well documented. Authors of a study focused upon respondents to the 2001 Canadian Census reported that more affluent and more highly educated adults living in the 30 largest Census metropolitan areas of Canada had greater exposures to residential greenness than those who were less affluent and less well-educated. This study builds on that work by using data from the more recent, 2016 Census; including respondents of all ages; and by considering differences in exposures according not only to age, education, and income, but also according to immigration status, time since immigration, self-reported ethnicity, and neighbourhood deprivation indices.Release date: 2021-05-19
