Title: 2001 Census public use microdata file
Description: The 2001 Census Public Use Microdata Files (PUMFs) contain samples of anonymous responses to the 2001 Census questionnaire. The files have been carefully scrutinized to ensure the complete confidentiality of the individual responses. Three files are available: the Individuals file, the Families file, and the Households and Housing file. Microdata files are unique among census products in that they give users access to non-aggregated data. The user can group and manipulate these variables to suit data and research requirements. Tabulations excluded from other census products can be created or relationships between variables can by analysed using different statistical tests. These files provide quick access to a comprehensive social and economic database about Canada and its people.
