NORTHERN ONTARIO'S COMMUNITY ACCOUNTS
sharing DATA providing INFORMATION developing KNOWLEDGE
The Multi-Variable Regional Comparison Feature is designed for retrieving topics for different geographies to aid in making comparisons. Select any number of variables from a single table, and then specify your table options such as geography type, age group, or gender (if applicable). Results will be shown for all geographies of the selected type and can be easily exported to excel for further work.
Table Information
Selected account: Income, Consumption and Leisure
Selected table: Census 2006: Presence of Employment Income
Variables
Total
Without employment income
With employment income
Median 2005 employment income
Average 2005 employment income
Standard error of average employment income
Worked Full Time, Full Year
Worked full year, full time with employment income
Refers to total income received by persons 15 years of age and over
during calendar year 2005 as wages and salaries, net income from a
non-farm unincorporated business and/or professional practice, and/or
net farm self-employment income.
Worked full year, full time with employment income
The term 'Full-year full-time workers' refers to persons 15 years of age
and over who worked 49 to 52 weeks (mostly full time) in the reference
year for pay or in self-employment.
Standard error of average income
Refers to the estimated standard error of average income for an income
size distribution. If interpreted as shown below, it serves as a rough
indicator of the precision of the corresponding estimate of average
income. For about 68% of the samples which could be selected from the
sample frame, the difference between the sample estimate of average
income and the corresponding figure based on complete enumeration would
be less than one standard error. For about 95% of the possible samples,
the difference would be less than two standard errors and, in about 99%
of the samples, the difference would be less than approximately two and
one half standard errors.
Median income of individuals
The median income of a specified group of income recipients is that
amount which divides their income size distribution, ranked by size of
income, into two halves, i.e., the incomes of the first half of
individuals are below the median, while those of the second half are
above the median. Median income is calculated from the unrounded number
of individuals (e.g., males 45 to 54 years of age) with income in that
group.
Average income of individuals
Average income of individuals refers to the weighted mean total income
of individuals 15 years of age and over who reported income for 2005.
Average income is calculated from unrounded data by dividing the
aggregate income of a specified group of individuals (e.g., males 45 to
54 years of age) by the number of individuals with income in that group.
