- 1. Portrait of Women by the Relative Remoteness of their Communities, Series 4: Labour CharacteristicsArticles and reports: 45-20-00022023001Description: Using data from the 2016 Census of Population and the updated Remoteness Index Classification, this paper focuses on the employment and unemployment rates, full-time employment, representation in industries and occupations, and the employment income of women by the relative remoteness of their communities.Release date: 2023-03-20
- Articles and reports: 45-20-00022022002Description:
Using the 2015/2016 and 2017/2018 Canadian Community Health Survey (CCHS), 2015-2018 Canadian Vital Death Statistics Database (CVSD) and the updated Remoteness Index Classification, this paper looks at the health and well-being of women and girls by the relative remoteness of their communities.
Release date: 2022-03-21 - 3. Portrait of Women by the Relative Remoteness of their Communities, Series 2: Educational AttainmentArticles and reports: 45-20-00022022001Description:
Using data from the 2016 Census of Population and the updated Remoteness Index Classification, this paper focuses on the educational attainment, type of postsecondary qualification (e.g. apprenticeship or trades, college or CEGEP, or university degree at the bachelor level or higher), and the fields of study of women by the relative remoteness of their communities.

Using the 2016 Long-Form Census of Population and the updated Remoteness Index Classification, this paper looks at the sociodemographic profile of women and girls by the relative remoteness of their communities.
Release date: 2021-09-20 - Articles and reports: 11-633-X2020002Description:
The concepts of urban and rural are widely debated and vary depending on a country’s geopolitical and sociodemographic composition. In Canada, population centres and statistical area classifications are widely used to distinguish urban and rural communities. However, neither of these classifications precisely classify Canadian communities into urban, rural and remote areas. A group of researchers at Statistics Canada developed an alternative tool called the “remoteness index” to measure the relative remoteness of Canadian communities. This study builds on the remoteness index, which is a continuous index, by examining how it can be classified into five discrete categories of remoteness geographies. When properly categorized, the remoteness index can be a useful tool to distinguish urban, rural and remote communities in Canada, while protecting the privacy and confidentiality of citizens. This study considers five methodological approaches and recommends three methods.

Geographic proximity to service centres and population centres is an important determinant of socio-economic and health outcomes. Consequently, it is a relevant dimension in the analysis and delivery of policies and programs. To measure this dimension, Statistics Canada developed an Index of Remoteness of communities. For each populated community (census subdivision), the index is determined by its distance to all the population centres defined by Statistics Canada in a given travel radius, as well as their population size.
Release date: 2020-04-15 - Articles and reports: 82-003-X201900500001Description:
This study uses the new remoteness index (RI) classification, which assigns a value to each census subdivision (CSD) and measures the relative remoteness of Canadian communities on the basis of their size and their proximity to surrounding population centres, to distinguish rural and remote areas from urban areas in Canada. The Canadian Vital Statistics-Death Database (2011 to 2015), and the 2016 Census of Population are also used in this study to examine major causes of both preventable and treatable mortality by relative remoteness of Canadian communities. It explores the interrelationship between remoteness and avoidable mortality while taking into account three important variables: average household income after-tax, the proportion of postsecondary graduates and the proportion of Aboriginal population by CSD.

Treatable and avoidable deaths, by remoteness, that could potentially have been prevented through primary prevention efforts. Mortality from preventable causes is a subset of potentially avoidable mortality.
