Census subdivision 2016

Census subdivision 2016 Census subdivision (CSD) is the general term for municipalities (as determined by provincial/territorial legislation) or areas treated as municipal equivalents for statistical purposes (e.g., Indian reserves, Indian settlements and unorganized territories). Municipal status is defined by laws in effect in each province and territory in Canada. Census subdivisions (CSDs) are classified into 53 types according to official designations adopted by provincial/territorial or federal authorities. Two exceptions are 'subdivision of unorganized' (SNO) in Newfoundland and Labrador, and 'subdivision of county municipality' (SC) in Nova Scotia, which are geographic areas created as equivalents for municipalities by Statistics Canada, in cooperation with those provinces, for the purpose of disseminating statistical data. The census subdivision type accompanies the census subdivision name in order to distinguish CSDs from each other, for example, Balmoral, VL (for the village of Balmoral) and Balmoral, P (for the parish / paroisse (municipalité de) of Balmoral). 2022-02-26 Statistics Canada infostats@statcan.gc.ca Government and PoliticsGeographic dataBoundariesCensusStatistics Census SubdivisionsWMS https://maps-cartes.services.geo.ca/server2_serveur2/services/StatCan/census_subdivisions_2016_en/MapServer/WMSServer?request=GetCapabilities&service=WMS&version=1.3.0&layers=0&legend_format=image%2Fpng&feature_info_type=text%2Fhtml Subdivisions de RecensementWMS https://maps-cartes.services.geo.ca/server2_serveur2/services/StatCan/census_subdivisions_2016_fr/MapServer/WMSServer?request=GetCapabilities&service=WMS&version=1.3.0&layers=0&legend_format=image%2Fpng&feature_info_type=text%2Fhtml File geodatabase (english)FGDB/GDB https://ftp.maps.canada.ca/pub/statcan_statcan/Census_Recensement/census_subdivisions_2016/census_subdivisions_2016_en.gdb.zip File geodatabase (french)FGDB/GDB https://ftp.maps.canada.ca/pub/statcan_statcan/Census_Recensement/census_subdivisions_2016/census_subdivisions_2016_fr.gdb.zip MXD file (english)MXD https://ftp.maps.canada.ca/pub/statcan_statcan/Census_Recensement/census_subdivisions_2016/census_subdivisions_2016_en.mxd MXD file (french)MXD https://ftp.maps.canada.ca/pub/statcan_statcan/Census_Recensement/census_subdivisions_2016/census_subdivisions_2016_fr.mxd 2016 Census - Boundary files (SHP, GML, TAB) - englishHTML https://www12.statcan.gc.ca/census-recensement/2011/geo/bound-limit/bound-limit-2016-eng.cfm 2016 Census - Boundary files (SHP, GML, TAB) - frenchHTML https://www12.statcan.gc.ca/census-recensement/2011/geo/bound-limit/bound-limit-2016-fra.cfm Boundary Files, Reference Guide (english)HTML https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/pub/92-160-g/92-160-g2016002-eng.htm Boundary Files, Reference Guide (french)HTML https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/pub/92-160-g/92-160-g2016002-fra.htm Geosuite (english)HTML https://geosuite.statcan.gc.ca/geosuite/en/index Geosuite (french)HTML https://geosuite.statcan.gc.ca/geosuite/fr/index Selection of Statistics Canada socio-economic variables by census subdivision (english)HTML https://gcgeo.gc.ca/geonetwork/metadata/eng/27e42e08-88a1-4691-854b-e46f8dada886 Selection of Statistics Canada socio-economic variables by census subdivision (french)HTML https://gcgeo.gc.ca/geonetwork/metadata/fre/27e42e08-88a1-4691-854b-e46f8dada886 Census Subdivisions 2016ESRI REST https://maps-cartes.services.geo.ca/server2_serveur2/rest/services/StatCan/census_subdivisions_2016_en/MapServer/0 Census Subdivisions 2016ESRI REST https://maps-cartes.services.geo.ca/server2_serveur2/rest/services/StatCan/census_subdivisions_2016_fr/MapServer/0
