Abstract | Poverty, usually measured using income, and poor health are closely related. Income is one of the non-medical determinants of health. The poor experience the highest rates of illness and premature
death. The income measures are for the year 1995 as reported in the 1996 Census. In that year, average total income for females was $19 208. However, significant regional variations in average income are apparent. Higher incomes predominate in
Ontario, Alberta, and British Columbia. Most census divisions in Atlantic Canada fall within the lower income levels. The distribution of average total income for males and females are similar. The income-health relationship is not well known, but
general linkages have been identified. Notably, health improves at every step up the income ladder. |
Summary | (Plain Language Summary, not published) The map was originally published online in the Atlas of Canada, 6th Edition as an interactive digital map derived from a shapefile and mapped online
using MapServer, a platform for publishing spatial data to the web. In order to preserve the geographical content of this Edition during its publication from 1999 to 2009 all the maps have been converted from their online interactive form to a raster
and made available in PDF and JPEG. |
