Defining Rural

Question

A researcher is  trying to define "Rural" using a Statistics Canada definition that will work in rural and northern areas. Any suggestions?

Answer

A Statistics Canada document that may be of assistance is  “Definitions of Rural”; it provides alternative definitions for “rural”.

It is available at http://www.statcan.gc.ca/pub/21-601-m/2002061/4224867-eng.pdf
