Description: Census tracts (CTs) are small, relatively stable geographic areas that usually have a population between 2,500 and 8,000 persons. They are located in census metropolitan areas and in census agglomerations that had a core population of 50,000 or more in the previous census.A committee of local specialists (for example, planners, health and social workers, and educators) initially delineates census tracts in conjunction with Statistics Canada. Once a census metropolitan area (CMA) or census agglomeration (CA) has been subdivided into census tracts, the census tracts are maintained even if the core population subsequently declines below 50,000Census AbbreviationsAbbreviationDescriptionPRProvince or territoryDPLDesignated placeFEDFederal electoral districtEREconomic regionCDCensus divisionADAAggregate dissemination areaCCSCensus consolidated subdivisionCSDCensus subdivisionDADissemination areaDBDissemination blockPNPlace nameCMACensus metropolitan area / Census agglomeration (Note: This geographic area variable acronym is used for census metropolitan area / census agglomeration and for non-census metropolitan area / census agglomeration.)POPCTRRAPopulation centre and/or Rural areaCTCensus tractDISgaDissolved geographic areaSACStandard area classificationXPRSecondary province codeCensus Data Field Names and DescriptionsNameDescriptionuidUnique identifierpopPopulationtdwellTotal private dwellingsurdwellPrivate dwellings occupied by usual residentsareaLand areairIncompletely enumerated Indian reserve or Indian settlementcodeCodenameNamesadjAdjusted population flagtypeTypeaflagAmendment flagrplamxRepresentative point Lambert xrplamyRepresentative point Lambert yrplatRepresentative point latituderplongRepresentative point longitudesourceLocator sourcepartPart (whether an area straddles a provincial boundary)classArea class_2016Represents 2016 data_2011Represents 2011 data_2006Represents 2006 data_2001Represents 2001 data
