95% Confidence interval estimates of low-income rates for at-risk groups in cities, 2000 and 2009
Table summary
This table displays the results of 95% confidence interval estimates of low-income rates for at-risk groups in cities. This information is is grouped by 2000, 2009, LICO, LIM and MBM appearing as column headers, calculated using lower bound and upper bound as units of measure.

Note 1: The confidence interval estimates allow us to test if difference in low income rates between groups is statistically significant under the same threshold. For example, under LICO, the 95% confidence interval estimates of low income rates for lone parents living in Montreal were (35.8, 49.8) and (16.4, 30.8) in 2000 and 2009. Hence under LICO, the low income rate declined for them between the two years because the intervals do not overlap. On the other hand, the 95% confidence einterval estimate of the low income rate for lone parents living in Edmonton in 2009 was (15.1, 31.9) under LICO. This was statistically indifferent from that of lone parents living in Montreal.
Note 2: Low-income cut-offs (LICO), low-income measure (LIM) and market basket measure (MBM).
