| cdres25 - Census division |
 |
| Character(2.0) | Format: s9 | |
|
Description
| |
Census division (CD) of residence for the
household as of December 31 of the reference year
. The codes are unique at the provincial level,
but not the Canada level; if categories from more
than one province are being used in the same
study, then concatenate PVRES25 (province) with
this variable.
Notes: Reference years prior to 1999 follow the
1991 Census geography-base boundaries. Reference
years from 1999 and on follow the 2001 Census
geography-base boundaries. Many boundary, name and
code changes have occurred between the 1991 and
2001 Census. Thus the codes between reference year
1998 and 1999 may be different even if the
household did not move.
For a detailed code set for the 2001 Census
Geography, please refer to GeoSuite 2001
(Catalogue no. 92F0085XCB) or the Standard
Geographical Classification SGC 2001 (Catalogue
no. 12-571-XPB) and for the 1991 Census Geography,
please refer to GeoRef 91 (Catalogue no. 92-345D)

| eir25 - Employment insurance region |
 |
| Character(2.0) | | |
|
Description
| |
Employment insurance region for the household as
of December 31 of the reference year.
Notes: Reference years prior to 1999 follow the
1991 Census geography-base boundaries. Reference
years from 1999 and on follow the 2001 Census
geography-base boundaries. The categories for this
variable changed to incorporate the changes that
occurred between the 1991 and 2001 Censuses. The
categories take into account the boundary
adjustments, renaming of areas, creation of areas
and retirement of areas between the censuses.
Codes for retired areas and areas with boundary
adjustments are only applicable for reference
years prior to 1999. Codes for areas created after
the 1991 Census are applicable only for reference
years 1999 and on. Codes for areas that have been
renamed after the 1991 Census are applicable in
all reference years. The applicable years are
indicated in brackets beside each category.
The code set for EIR25 change by adding new EIR
codes so the code set is common for both census
geographies. The reference years indicated in
brackets implies that the corresponding code is
applicable only to those reference years.
For the 1991 geography, the July 1996 delineation
of EIR is used and for the 2001 geography, the
July 2000 delineation of EIR is used. These
regions are used for the administration of the
employment insurance program from Human Resources
Development Canada starting in July 1996. However,
these codes have been added to the SLID database
back to 1992.

Federal electoral district (FED) of residence for
the household as of December 31 of the reference
year. The codes are unique at the provincial
level, but not the Canada level; if categories
from more than one province are being used in the
same study, then concatenate PVRES25 (province)
with this variable. The FED is an area
represented by a member of the House of Commons.
The FED boundaries used for the 2001 census are
based on teh 1996 Respresentation Order. Note
that the 1991 Census was taken according to the
1987 Representation Order.
Notes: Reference years prior to 1999 follow the
1991 Census geography-base boundaries. Reference
years from 1999 and on follow the 2001 Census
geography-base boundaries.

|
Description
| |
Latitude of residence for the household as of
December 31 of the reference year. The fractions
of degree are expressed in decimals rather than
minutes and seconds.
Notes: Latitude of residence for the household for
reference years prior to 1999 were given by the
center of the enumeration area (EA), which follows
the 1991 Census geography-base boundaries.
Latitude of residence for the household for
reference years from 1999 and on are given by the
center of the dissemination area (DA), which
follows the 2001 Census geography-base boundaries.
Thus, a minor variation in the latitude exists
between 1998 and 1999 even if the household did
not move.
Rural dissemination areas can be quite large (i.e.
over a few thousand square kilometres). Hence, the
actual latitude of residence for the household can
be rather far from the latitude given by the
center of the DA.
Latitude is defined as the angular measurement of
a location expressed in degrees north or south of
the equator.

| sactyp25 - Statistical Area Classification type (from RY1999 on) |
 |
| Character(2.0) | | |
|
Description
| |
Statistical Area Classification type of residence
for the household as of December 31 of the
reference year (available for 2001 Census
Geography only).
A census metropolitan area (CMA) or a census
agglomeration (CA) is made up of one or more
adjacent municipalities centered on a large urban
area, also known as the urban core. The census
population count of the urban core is at least
10,000 to form a CA and at least 100,000 to form a
CMA. If the population of the urban core of a CA
declines below 10,000, the CA is retired. However,
once an area becomes a CMA, it is retained as a
CMA even if the population of its urban core
declines below 100,000. When a CA has an urban
core of at least 50,000 based on census counts, it
is subdivided into census tracts. Census tracts
are maintained for the CA even if the population
of the urban core subsequently falls below 50,000.
All CMAs are subdivided into census tracts.
The CMA and CA influenced zone (MIZ) is a new
concept applied to areas outside CMAs and CAs.
Census subdivisions (CSDs) outside CMAs and CAs
are assigned to one of four categories according
to the degree of influence (strong, moderate, weak
or no influence) that CMAs and/or CAs collectively
have on them. The strong MIZ category includes
CSDs with a commuting flow of 30% or more (at
least 30% of the total employed labour force
living in the CSD works in any CMA/CA urban core).
The moderate MIZ category includes CSDs with a
commuting flow percentage between 5% and under 30%
(at least 5%, but less than 30%, of the total
employed labour force living in the municipality
works in any CMA/CA urban core). The weak MIZ
category includes CSDs with a commuting flow
percentage more than 0%, but less than 5% (more
than 0%, but less than 30% of the total employed
labour force living in the municipality works in
any CMA/CA urban core). The no MIZ category
includes those CSDs with fewer than 40 people in
the resident labour force commuting to work in
CMA/CA urban cores.
Note: SACTYP25 is only available from reference
year 1999 and on since this classification was
introduced in the 2001 Census. SACTYP25 replaced
CATYP25, which was previously used to group CMA
and CA types.

| urbcd25 - Urban area code |
 |
| Character(4.0) | | |
|
Description
| |
Urban area code for this household as of December
31 of the reference year. Urban area codes are
unique four digit codes for all of Canada. They
reflect the order in which they were created.
Codes created in one census remain constant
thereafter.
Notes: Reference years prior to 1999 follow the
1991 Census geography-base
boundaries. Reference years from 1999 and on
follow the 2001 Census
geography-base boundaries.
The urban area codes are determined by Geography
Division of Statistics Canada.
In the 1991 Census, Statistics Canada defined an
urban area as an area with a
population of at least 1,000 and a population
density of at least 400 per square
kilometre predetermined by the 1986 Census.
In the 2001 Census, Statistics Canada defined an
urban area in the same way, but as recorded by the
current census population counts (i.e. 2001
Census).
All areas outside urban areas is classified as
rural.
For a detailed urban area code set for the 1991
Census geography, please refer
to GeoRef 91 (Catalogue no. 92-345D). For a
detailed urban area code set for the

Flag indicating if this household was in an urban

year.
Notes: Reference years prior to 1999 follow the
1991 Census geography-base
boundaries. Reference years from 1999 and on
follow the 2001 Census
geography-base boundaries. The categories for
URBRUR25 are the same.
For reference years prior to 1999, a household is
flagged to reside in an urban
area if the urban area code from the Geographic
Attribute File (GAF) is not
'0000'. A household is flagged to reside in a
rural area if the urban area
code from the GAF is '0000'.
For reference years 1999 on, a household is
flagged to reside in an urban area if
the first 2 digits of the urban area code from the
GAF or the Postal Code
Conversion File (PCCF) are not '99'. A household
is flagged to reside in a rural
area if the first 2 digits of the urban area code
from the GAF or PCCF are '99'.
The urban area codes are determined by Geography
Division of Statistics Canada.
In the 1991 Census, Statistics Canada defined an
urban area as an area with a
population of at least 1,000 and a population
density of at least 400 per square
kilometre as predetermined by the 1986 Census.
In the 2001 Census, Statistics Canada defined an
urban area in the same way, but as recorded by the
current census population counts (i.e. 2001
Census).
All areas outside urban areas are classified as
rural.

Urban size. Population of area of residence.
Notes:
Reference years prior to 1999 follow the 1991
Census geography-base boundaries. Reference years
from 1999 and on follow the 2001 Census
geography-base boundaries.
In the 1991 Census, Statistics Canada defined an
urban area as an area with a population of at
least 1,000 and a population density of at least
400 per square kilometre predetermined by the 1986
Census. However, the urban population size groups
are assigned based on their 1991 Census population
counts. In areas where population decline, this
can result in some urban areas having a population
of less than 1,000 according to the 1991 Census.
Hence, in the 1991 Census geography-base, there
was an urban population size group for "0 to 999".
In the 2001 Census, Statistics Canada defined an
urban area in the same way, but as recorded by the
current census population count (i.e. 2001
Census). As well, the urban population size groups
are assigned based on their 2001 Census population
counts. Hence, in the 2001 Census geography-base,
there is no inconsistency between the urban area
definition and population counts. Consequently, in
SLID there is no urban area with population count
for the group "0 to 999" starting in reference
year 1999 on. Hence, the categories for this
variable are the same and the applicable years are
indicated in brackets beside each category.

| Decimal(7.4) | Format: 99.9999 | |
|
Description
| |
Latitude of residence for the household as of
December 31 of the reference year. The fractions
of degree are expressed in decimals rather than
minutes and seconds.
Notes: The latitude of residence for the household
is given by the center of the enumeration area
(EA), which follows the 1991 Census geography-base
boundaries. Data for this variable is available
for reference years 1992 to 2001, not applicable

Rural enumeration areas can be quite large (i.e.
over a few thousand square kilometres). Hence, the
actual latitude of residence for the household can
be rather far from the latitude given by the
center of the EA.
Latitude is defined as the angular measurement of
a location expressed in degrees north or south of
the equator.

Attribute File (GAF) is not '0000'. A household is
flagged to reside in a rural area if the urban
area code from the GAF is '0000'.
The urban area codes are determined by Geography
Division of Statistics Canada.
In the 1991 Census, Statistics Canada defined an
urban area as an area with a population of at
least 1,000 and a population density of at least
400 per square kilometre predetermined by the 1986
Census.
All areas outside urban areas is classified as
rural.
For a detailed urban area code set for the 1991
Census geography, please refer to GeoRef 91
(Catalogue no. 92-345D).

Urban size. Population of area of residence.
Notes: This variable reflects the 1991 Census
geography-base boundaries. Data for this variable
is available for reference years 1992 to 2001, not
applicable 2002 on.
In the 1991 Census, Statistics Canada defined an
urban area as an area with a population of at
least 1,000 and a population density of at least
400 per square kilometre predetermined by the 1986
Census. However, the urban population size groups
are assigned based on their 1991 Census population
counts. In areas where population decline, this
can result in some urban areas having a population
of less than 1,000 according to the 1991 Census.
Hence, in the 1991 Census geography-base, there is
an urban population size group for "0 to 999".

| xuszga25 - Adjusted size of area of residence (RY1992-RY2001) |
 |
| Character(1.0) | | |
|
Description
| |
Adjusted size of area of residence for determining
relevant LICO. All areas within the same CMA/CA
will be coded to the same size.
Adjusted size of area of residence is assigned
according to the variable XCMAPO25 (CMA/CA
population). However, if the household is not in a
CMA/CA, the XUSZGA25 code depends on the variable
XURBPO25 (Population of area of residence) and
XUSZGA25 is equal to the variable XURBSG25 (Size
of area of residence).
Note: This variable reflects the 1991 Census
geography-base boundaries. Data for this variable
is available for reference years 1992 to 2001, not
applicable 2002 on.
