Family	Total number of children at home: Refers to the classification of the population according to whether or not the persons are members of a census family. Family persons refer to household members who belong to a census family. They, in turn, are further classified as follows: Spouses refer to persons of opposite sex who are legally married to each other and living in the same dwelling. Common-law partners are two persons of opposite sex or of the same sex who are not legally married to each other, but live together as a couple in the same dwelling. Lone parent refers to a mother or a father, with no spouse or common-law partner present, living in a dwelling with one or more children. Children refer to blood, step- or adopted sons and daughters (regardless of age or marital status) who are living in the same dwelling as their parent(s), as well as grandchildren in households where there are no parents present. Sons and daughters who are living with their spouse or common-law partner, or with one or more of their own children, are not considered to be members of the census family of their parent(s), even if they are living in the same dwelling. In addition, those sons and daughters who do not live in the same dwelling as their parent(s) are not considered members of the census family of their parent(s). The category of children can be further distinguished as follows: Never-married sons and/or daughters in a census family, as used in censuses prior to 2001. Other sons and/or daughters in a census family who would not have been included in the census family of their parents according to the previous concept. Grandchildren living in the same household as their grandparent(s), with no parents present. Non-family persons refer to household members who do not belong to a census family. They may be related to Person 1 (e.g. Person 1's sister, brother-in-law, cousin, grandparent), or unrelated to Person 1 (e.g. lodger, room-mate, employee). A person living alone is always a non-family person.

They may be related to Person 1 (e.g. Person 1's sister, brother-in-law, cousin, grandparent), or unrelated to Person 1 (e.g. lodger, room-mate, employee). A person living alone is always a non-family person.

Household	Average number of persons in private households
Household	Total number of private households by household type: i.e., a category to which a person living alone or a group of persons occupying the same dwelling belong. There are two categories: non-family households and family households. A non-family household consists either of one person living alone or of two or more persons who share a dwelling, but do not constitute a family (e.g., a couple with or without children). Family households are divided into two subcategories: one-family households and multiple-family households. A one-family household consists of a single family (e.g., a couple with or without children). A multiple-family household is made up of two or more families occupying the same dwelling.
Household	One-family households: It refers to a single census family (with or without other non-family persons) that occupies a private dwelling.
Household	Multiple-family households: It refers to a household in which two or more census families (with or without additional non-family persons) occupy the same private dwelling.
Household	Non-family households: It refers either one person living alone in a private dwelling or to a group of two or more people who share a private dwelling, but who do not constitute a census family.
Household	Tenant households in non-farm, non-reserve private dwellings
Household	Average gross rent $: Average monthly total of all shelter expenses paid by tenant households. Gross rent includes the monthly rent and the costs of electricity, heat and municipal services.
Household	Tenant households spending 30% or more of household income on gross rent
Household	Tenant households spending from 30% to 99% of household income on gross rent
Household	Owner households in non-farm, non-reserve private dwellings
Household	Average owner's major payments $: Owner Major Payments: Average monthly  total  of  all  shelter expenses paid by households that own  their  dwelling.  The owner’s major  payments  include,  for  example,  the  mortgage  payment  and  the  costs  of  electricity,  heat  and municipal services.
Household	Owner households spending 30% or more of household income on owner's major payments. It should be noted that not all households spending 30% or more of incomes on shelter costs are necessarily experiencing housing affordability problems. This is particularly true of households with high incomes. There are also other households who choose to spend more on shelter than on other goods. Nevertheless, the allocation of 30% or more of a household's income to housing expenses provides a useful benchmark for assessing trends in housing affordability. The relatively high shelter cost to household income ratios for some households may have resulted from the difference in the reference period for shelter cost and household income data.
Household	Owner households spending from 30% to 99% of household income on owner's major payments

Mobility
Mobility refers to the relationship between a person's usual place of residence and his or her usual place of residence one/five year earlier. A person is classified as a non-mover if no difference exists. Otherwise, a person is classified as a mover and this categorization is called Mobility Status (1/5 Year Ago). Within the category of movers, a further distinction is made between non-migrants and migrants; this difference is called migration status. Non-movers are persons who were living at the same address as the one at which they resided one/five  year earlier. Movers are persons who were living at a different address than the one at which they resided one year earlier. Non-migrants are movers who were living at a different address, but in the same census subdivision (CSD) as the one they lived in one/five year earlier. Migrants are movers who were residing in a different CSD one/five  year earlier (internal migrants) or who were living outside Canada one year earlier (external migrants). Intraprovincial migrants are movers who were living in a different census subdivision than the one at which they resided one/five year earlier, in the same province.  Interprovincial migrants are movers who were living in a different census subdivision than the one at which they resided one/five year earlier, in a different province.

At the most detailed level, there are 520 occupation unit groups. Occupation unit groups are formed on the basis of the education, training, or skill level required to enter the job, as well as the kind of work performed, as determined by the tasks, duties and responsibilities of the occupation.

Ethnicity
Ethnic Origin Refers to the ethnic or cultural group(s) to which the respondent's ancestors belong. Ethnic or cultural origin refers to the ethnic 'roots' or ancestral background of the population, and should not be confused with citizenship or nationality.
Variable Category	Variable Description
Ethnicity	Total population by ethnic origin (single and multiple responses):  It represents the total population of Canada, excluding institutional residents. It also represents the sum of persons who reported single ethnic origins and multiple ethnic origins in the census.
Ethnicity	Total population - Single responses: It represents the total number of persons who reported only one ethnic origin in the census. This total is greater than the sum of single responses in this table because not all ethnic origins are shown in the data.
Ethnicity	Total population - Multiple responses: The count for 'Total population - Multiple responses' represents the total number of persons who reported more than one ethnic origin in the census. This total is less than the sum of multiple responses of each group because respondents reporting more than one ethnic origin are counted in the multiple responses categories for each of the groups they reported. For example: a respondent reporting Scottish and English origins is counted once under the Total population - Multiple responses category. However, the same respondent is counted once in the Scottish - Multiple responses category and counted once in the English - Multiple responses category.
