2006 Census Family Average Income



Question

A researcher needs 2006 Census family "average" income at CT level for Toronto. I have only been able to find 2006 Census family "median" income through Census tract (CT) profiles webpage at http://www12.statcan.ca/census-recensement/2006/dp-pd/prof/92-597/index.cfm?Lang=E. This income category is not included in any 2006 Census Area Profiles tables, as other income categories are. Is there any reason for that? Please let me know where can I find 2006 Census family average income data at CT level.

Answer

I found this in separate profiles for census tracts - http://search1.odesi.ca/#/details?uri=%2Fodesi%2Fcen-95F0495-E-2006-profb20.xml , not sure why the data were released under “Addendum: Profile of ethnic origin and census family income” was released like that, maybe others will have more info :
