  • 1. The Rural-Urban Income Gap Within Provinces: An Update to 2000 Archived
    Articles and reports: 21-006-X2004007
    Geography: Canada
    Description:

    This bulletin uses data from 2000 to update the analysis of Singh (2002) of the rural-urban income gap over the 1980 to 1995 period.

    Release date: 2004-12-23
  • 2. The Rural/Urban Divide is Not Changing: Income Disparities Persist Archived
    Articles and reports: 21-006-X2002004
    Geography: Canada
    Description:

    This paper applies a broad set of disparity measures to subprovincial income data in Canada. The data used in this research come from income tax returns from 1992 to 1999, for about 280 census divisions covering the entire country. This approach provides an understanding of the spatial structure of income disparity with a high level of geographical resolution, which also highlights the evolution of the rural/urban divide. Since the period of study is short, the results are particularly relevant in understanding the spatial characteristics of the growth that occurred during the 1990s.

  • 3. Rural Income Disparities in Canada: A Comparison Across the Provinces Archived
    Articles and reports: 21-006-X2001007
    Geography: Canada
    Description:

    One objective of public policy is to reduce income disparity in Canada. Previous research (e.g. Rupnik, Thompson-James and Bollman (2001)) has indicated that, on average, rural residents have a similar incidence of low income as urban residents. However, there is considerable diversity within rural regions, i.e. the term 'rural' is far from being a homogeneous entity. For example, the rural regions in Ontario are very different from the rural regions in the Prairies due to the differences in population size and access to markets, among other features. Since rural regions across Canada differ economically and socially, it follows that the nature of rural income disparities could also differ across provinces in Canada. The objective of this study is to describe the range in income disparities across rural Canada.
