Adminstrative Areas
Administrative areas are defined, with a few exceptions, by federal and provincial statutes and are adopted for purposes of the census. Administrative areas supported by Statistics Canada include:
- Province and Territory Census Subdivision (commonly known as municipalities)
- Census Division (regional government areas such as counties and regional districts)
- Designated Place (sub-municipal status areas such as local service districts)
- Federal Electoral District (commonly called federal ridings) and
- Postal Code (defined and maintained by Canada Post Corporation).
