Pseudo-Household Demographic Distribution

The Pseudo-Household Demographic Distribution is a geospatial representative distribution of demographic data (population and households) derived from the Canadian Census from Statistics Canada. Demography is distributed within Dissemination Blocks along roadways, providing a more accurate geospatial distribution while still aligning with published Census geographies.

Pseudo-household demographics are currently used to calculate broadband Internet service availability, but are equally applicable to other disciplines requiring a spatial distribution of households or population.
