Socio-Economic Indicators for Local Geographic Area versus Alberta Residents, 2011

This table provides statistics on Family Composition, Family Income, Housing Mobility, Language, Immigration, Educational Attainment, Household and Dwelling Characteristics for selected indicators. This indicator dataset contains information at both Local Geographic Area (for example, Lacombe, Red Deer - North, Calgary - West Bow, etc.) and Alberta levels. Local geographic area refers to 132 geographic areas created by Alberta Health (AH) and Alberta Health Services (AHS) based on census boundaries. The Federal Census (2011) and National Household Survey (2011) information is custom extracted by Statistics Canada at the local geographic area level. The population of these areas varies from very small in rural areas to large in metropolitan centers. This table is the part of "Alberta Health Primary Health Care - Community Profiles" report published March 2015.

Average Two-Bedroom Rent, Alberta and Major Alberta Urban Centres

This Alberta Official Statistic shows the average monthly rental rates for two-bedroom units in Alberta and major urban centres (Calgary CMA, Edmonton CMA, Red Deer CA, Lethbridge CA, Medicine Hat CA, Wood Buffalo CA and Grande Prairie CA). Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) conducts the Rental Market Survey (RMS) every year in April and October to estimate the relative strength and change in the rental market. The survey is conducted on a sample basis in all urban areas with populations of 10,000 and more. The survey targets only privately initiated structures with at least three rental units, which have been on the market for at least three months. The data collected for a structure depends on whether it is an apartment or a row structure. The survey collects market rent, available and vacant unit data for all sampled structures. The survey is conducted by a combination of telephone interviews and site visits, and information obtained from the owner, manager, or building superintendent. The survey is conducted during the first two weeks of April/October, and the results reflect market conditions at that time.

Inpatient Separations for the Local Geographic Area (LGA) Residents to Facilities Located In versus Out of the Local Geographic Area (LGA), Fiscal Year 2013/2014

This table provides the inpatient separations made by local are residents to facilities within the local geographic area as well as facilities outside of it. The data is provided for the most recent fiscal year available. An inpatient separation from a health care facility occurs anytime a patient (or resident) leaves because of death, discharge, sign-out against medical advice or transfer. The number of separations is the most commonly used measure of the utilization of hospital services. Separations, rather than admissions, are used because hospital abstracts for inpatient care are based on information gathered at the time of discharge. This indicator dataset contains information at both Local Geographic Area (for example, Lacombe, Red Deer, Calgary West Bow, etc.) and Alberta levels. Local geographic area refers to 132 geographic areas created by Alberta Health (AH) and Alberta Health Services (AHS) based on census boundaries.

Provincial Timber Harvest and Annual Allowable Cut, Alberta Crown Lands

This Alberta Official Statistic indicates the status of Alberta’s timber stocks by comparing the actual annual timber harvest with the long-term annual allowable cut (AAC). The gap between harvest and annual allowable cut (AAC) is a measure reflecting the Agriculture and Forestry Ministry’s ability to manage Alberta’s timber resources in a sustainable manner. It indicates the status of Alberta’s timber stocks by comparing the actual annual timber harvest with the annual amount of timber the Ministry allows to be cut in the forested portion of the province. The target is to keep Alberta’s annual timber harvest at or below the AAC and reduce the gap between actual harvest and AAC. This measure indicates the status of Alberta’s timber stocks by comparing the actual annual timber harvest with the long-term AAC, as set by the province within the Green Area. The Green Area is primarily the unsettled portion of the province defined as lands not available for agricultural development other than grazing. To ensure sustainability, harvest levels every year should not exceed approved AAC for that year.

Local Geographic Area (LGA) Age-Standardized Mortality Rates (per 100,000 population) by Three-year Period, 2004/2006 - 2011/2013

Provides the age-standardized mortality rates per 100,000 population, for the three selected causes of death and all causes combined. The three selected causes of death are Circulatory System, Neoplasms and External Causes (Injury). Age standardization is a technique applied to make rates comparable across groups with different age distributions. A simple rate is defined as the number of people with a particular condition divided by the whole population. An age-standardized rate is defined as the number of people with a condition divided by the population within each age group. Standardizing (adjusting) the rate across age groups allows a more accurate comparison between populations that have different age structures. Age standardization is typically done when comparing rates across time periods, different geographic areas, and or population sub-groups (e.g. ethnic group). This indicator dataset contains information at both Local Geographic Area (for example, Lacombe, Red Deer - North, Calgary - West Bow, etc.) and Alberta levels. Local geographic area refers to 132 geographic areas created by Alberta Health (AH) and Alberta Health Services (AHS) based on census boundaries.

Total Fertility Rate, Alberta and Alberta Health Services Continuum Zones

This Alberta Official Statistic compares the total fertility rate (TFR) across the five Alberta Health Services Continuum Zones for 2014. The TFR represents the number of children a woman would have on average if the current age-specific fertility rates prevailed throughout her childbearing years (ages 15 to 49). It is one of the most useful indicators of fertility because it gives the best picture of how many children women are currently having.

Population Change, Rural and Small Town Alberta

This Alberta Official Statistic describes the percent change in Alberta’s population between 1986 and 2011 by 5-year census cycles. The population is divided into "Larger Urban Centres" and Rural and Small Town areas. Within rural Alberta, the population is divided into four categories with each category consecutively representing lesser integration with urban economies. The four categories are called Metropolitan Influenced Zones (MIZ) and capture urban integration based on the percent of the working population commuting to urban centers. The categories are: Strong MIZ (where 30% or more of the workforce commutes to an urban core) Moderate MIZ (where 5% to 29% commute to any urban core) Weak MIZ (where greater than 0% but less than 5% commute to any urban core) No MIZ (where there are no residents commuting to an urban core)

Environmental Effects Monitoring (EEM) - Metal and Diamond Mines - Effluent Characterization

Under the Metal and Diamond Mining Effluent Regulations (MDMER), mines are required, as part of Environmental Effects Monitoring (EEM) studies, to conduct effluent and water quality monitoring studies, which include effluent characterization. 


Effluent characterization is conducted once per calendar quarter and at least one month apart on a sample of effluent taken from each final discharge point of the mine. Parameters and substances recorded under effluent characterization include hardness, alkalinity, electrical conductivity and temperature of the sample and the concentrations, in total values, of ammonia (until June 2021), aluminum, cadmium, chloride, chromium, cobalt, iron, manganese, mercury, molybdenum, nitrate (concentration in units of nitrogen), phosphorus (concentration in units of phosphorus), selenium, sulphate, thallium and uranium. Further information on the analytical requirements and conditions under which monitoring for mercury may be discontinued can be found in the MDMER. 


The data and information are published as reported by mines and have not been verified for accuracy and completeness.
