    • 1. Incomes from Owner-occupied Housing for Working-age and Retirement-age Canadians, 1969 to 2006 Archived
      Articles and reports: 11F0027M2010066
      Geography: Canada
      Description:

      Using data from the Survey of Household Spending and from its predecessor, the Survey of Family Expenditures, this paper investigates the relative incomes of retirement-age and working-age Canadians from 1969 to 2006, taking into account both explicit household income and the implicit income generated by owner-occupied housing. Over this 37-year period, the explicit incomes of retirement-age households increased at a more rapid pace than those of working-age households. Implicit income from owner-occupied housing also increased rapidly during this time, matching the rate at which the explicit income of retirement-age households increased. On average, this implicit source of earnings raised the incomes of retirement-age households (aged 70 and over) by 16%. Taking both forms of income into account, the incomes of retirement-age households (aged 70 and over), relative to the incomes of working-age households (aged 40 to 49), increased from 45% in 1969 to 59% in 2006. During this period, Canadians invested in housing assets that provided additional income upon retirement.

    How do I use the filters and the search box?

    • You can initiate a search by entering keywords or selecting filters (e.g., under Subject, Geography, etc.) on the left side of the page.

    • Filters can be used together or in any combination. Each time you select a filter, the results on the page are updated.

    • To start a new search, click on the Clear all button above the search box or deselect each filter.

    • Specified keywords and filters appear above the search box. You can deselect any or all the tags to refine or clear your search.

    How do I refine my search?

    • You can enter keywords in the search box. It is not necessary to use “+” or “, “ or “AND”.

    • You can delete some or all of the keywords from your search string.

    • Quotes around keywords limit the search to a specific phrase.

      • For example, “labour force survey” will limit results to products containing this phrase.

    • Use “or” between keywords to obtain results that contain one or more search terms.

      • For example, labour or­ force or survey will limit results to products containing any or all of these words.

    How does the search work?

    • This search looks for results that have your query term in the title, description, subject, geography, product number or other information about the product.

      • For example, when searching the term ‘Diseases’, all results with the word ‘Diseases’ in the title, description or tagged the subject appear.
