Footnotes: 1 Population estimates based on the Standard Geographical Classification (SGC) 2016 as delineated in the 2016 Census. 2 A census subdivision (CSD) is a municipality (as determined by provincial/territorial legislation) or an area treated as municipal equivalent for statistical purposes (e.g., Indian reserves, Indian settlements and unorganized territories). Municipal status is defined by laws in effect in each province and territory in Canada. Census subdivisions (CSDs) are classified into 53 types according to official designations adopted by provincial/territorial or federal authorities." 3 Postcensal estimates are based on the latest census counts adjusted for census net undercoverage (including adjustment for incompletely enumerated Indian reserves) and on the estimated population growth that occurred since that census, as calculated using fiscal data. Intercensal estimates are based on postcensal estimates and census counts adjusted of the censuses preceding and following the considered year. Population estimates for census subdivisions (CSDs) in Quebec are provided by l'Institut de la statistique du Québec" (ISQ). Population estimates for CSDs in Alberta are provided by Alberta’s Office of Statistics and Information (OSI) in current geography for July 1 2016 and after. They are converted to the appropriate standard geographical classification (SGC) using geographical relationships provided by the OSI. Due to this geographical difference small discrepancies may exist between CSD populations released by Statistics Canada for Alberta and those found directly on the OSI’s website. CSD population estimates for Alberta prior to July 14 Population estimates as of July 1 are final intercensal up to 2015, final postcensal for 2016 to 2019, updated postcensal for 2020 and preliminary postcensal for 2021. 5 In order to categorize CSDs by population size (5,000-plus; under 5,000), population estimates as of July 1, 2016 are used. Moreover, within each category, CSDs are presented in ascending order on the basis of their population as of July 1, 2016. 6 Population estimates by age and sex for census subdivisions are available upon request as a custom cost-recovery product by contacting the Centre for Demography client services mailbox (statcan.demography-demographie.statcan@statcan.gc.ca).
