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.

The total income of a household is the sum of the total incomes of all members of that household.
Household total income
The total income of a household is the sum of the total incomes of all members of that household.
After-tax income of households
The sum of the after-tax incomes of all members of that household.
After-tax income of household members refers to total income from all
sources minus federal, provincial and territorial taxes paid for 2005.
Economic family
Refers to a group of two or more persons who live in the same dwelling
and are related to each other by blood, marriage, common-law or
adoption.
Economic family total income
The sum of the total incomes of all members of that family.
Total income
Refers to the total money income received from the following
sources during calendar year 2005 by persons 15 years of age and over:
wages and salaries (total)
net farm income
net non-farm income from unincorporated business and/or professional practice
child benefits
Old Age Security pension and Guaranteed Income Supplement
benefits from Canada or Quebec Pension Plan
benefits from Employment Insurance
other income from government sources
dividends, interest on bonds, deposits and savings certificates, and other investment income
retirement pensions, superannuation and annuities, including those from RRSPs and RRIFs
other money income.
After-tax income of economic families
The sum of the after-tax incomes of all members of that family.
After-tax income of family members or persons not in families refers to
total income from all sources minus federal, provincial and territorial
income taxes paid for 2005.
Average income of families, persons 15 years of age and over not in families, and households
Refers to the weighted mean total income of families (census/economic),
persons 15 years of age and over not in families, or households in 2005.
Average income is calculated from unrounded data by dividing the
aggregate income of a specified group of families (for example,
husband-wife families with working wives) or persons 15 years of age and
over not in families or households (for example, two-person households)
by the number of families, persons not in families, or households in
that respective group, whether or not they reported income.
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 a
half standard errors.
Median income of families, persons 15 years of age and over not in families, and households
Is that amount which divides their income size distribution, ranked by
size of income, into two halves. That is, the incomes of the first half
of the families, persons 15 years of age and over not in families, or
households are below the median, while those of the second half are
above the median. Median incomes of families (census/economic), persons
15 years of age and over not in families, or households are normally
calculated for all units in the specified group, whether or not they
reported income.
