Community Health Indicators

Question

A student wants to get health and economic (income, etc.) indicators for a community, which in this case is a subset of a CMA (meaning a neighbourhood or even a postal code area, etc.). I think that the Community Profiles can be used to get the income information. But, the CCHS seems to only get to the health region level. I'm open to suggestions for which files to check if anyone knows of some!

Answer

You won't be able to get health indicators at lower level because of sample size. You could ask for custom tabulation from Health Division but I pretty sure they won't be able to accommodate but it's worth checking.
