Wellbeing Toronto - Demographics: NHS Indicators



This data set shows the following indicators: population breakdown by ethnicity, household income, education level, employment, age and sex. Data is broken down by the different Toronto neighbourhoods.

**CITY OF TORONTO NATIONAL HOUSEHOLD SURVEY METHODOLOGY NOTATION**

There were changes in the way information was collected for portions of the 2011 Census. This will impact the extent to which comparisons can be made with other Census periods on some Census variables. In general, 2011 Census data on population, dwelling counts, age, sex, families, household living arrangements, marital status, structural types of dwellings types and language can be compared to the data from other Censuses, with due regard for changing definitions of individual variables.

Information on Aboriginal peoples, immigration, ethnocultural diversity, education, labour, income and housing was collected differently in 2011 as part of a voluntary National Household Survey (NHS) by Statistics Canada. In general, the 2011 NHS data is less comparable to that of the other Censuses due to non-response bias inherent in voluntary surveys. The risk of a voluntary survey is that the results may only reflect the kinds of individuals who are inclined to participate in a survey in the first place. As the National Household Survey User Guide [notes](http://www12.statcan.gc.ca/nhs-enm/2011/ref/nhs-enm_guide/guide_4-eng.cfm#A_5_5), "because non-respondents tend to have different characteristics from respondents. As a result, there is a risk that the results will not be representative of the actual population." Comparisons between the 2011 NHS and other Censuses should not be considered fully reliable.

2021 Street Needs Assessment Results

The Street Needs Assessment (SNA) is a survey and point-in-time count of people experiencing homelessness in Toronto conducted in April, 2021 led by the City’s Toronto Shelter and Support Services (TSSS) in collaboration with community partners in the homelessness sector. The results provide a snapshot of the scope and profile of people experiencing homelessness in Toronto and give people experiencing homelessness a voice in the services they need to find and keep housing. 

The 2021 SNA is the City's fifth count and survey of people experiencing homelessness in Toronto and was part of a coordinated point-in time count conducted by communities across Canada and Ontario. The 2021 results provide critical data needed to understand the impact of the pandemic on homelessness, and to understand broader service needs of people experiencing homelessness in Toronto. The results of the 2021 Street Needs Assessment were summarized in a report and key highlights slide deck the can be found [here]( https://www.toronto.ca/city-government/data-research-maps/research-reports/housing-and-homelessness-research-and-reports/).

The 2021 SNA involved a 34 core question survey completed by 2,629 individuals staying outdoors and in encampments, in City-administered shelters and shelter hotels (including COVID-19 response sites and the isolation/recovery site), 24-hour respite sites (including 24-hour women’s drop-ins and winter services in operation), as well as provincially-administered Violence Against Women shelters. The SNA does not include people who are experiencing hidden homelessness, such as people who are temporarily staying with others.

Surveys in indoor shelter locations were conducted over a period of one week (April 19-23, 2021) and the outdoor survey was conducted on April 27, 2021.

This dataset includes the SNA survey results; it does not include the count of people experiencing homelessness in Toronto. Information about the count can be found in the results [report](https://www.toronto.ca/legdocs/mmis/2021/ec/bgrd/backgroundfile-171729.pdf).
