List of designated places in New Brunswick

Last updated

A designated place is a type of geographic unit used by Statistics Canada to disseminate census data. [1] It is usually "a small community that does not meet the criteria used to define incorporated municipalities or Statistics Canada population centres (areas with a population of at least 1,000 and no fewer than 400 persons per square kilometre)." [2] Provincial and territorial authorities collaborate with Statistics Canada in the creation of designated places so that data can be published for sub-areas within municipalities. [2] Starting in 2016, Statistics Canada allowed the overlapping of designated places with population centres. [2]

In the 2021 Census of Population, New Brunswick had 161 designated places, [3] an increase from 157 in 2016. [4] Designated place types in New Brunswick include 8 former local governments, 152 local service districts [a] and a single retired population centre. [9] In 2021, the 161 designated places had a cumulative population of 93,925 and an average population of 583. New Brunswick's largest designated place is Tracadie with a population of 5,349. [10]

Notes

  1. Local service districts (LSDs) delineated by Statistics Canada usually correspond to provincially-delineated LSDs but may have boundary and/or name differences or correspond to areas with altered services that are only part of a provincial-delineated LSD. Examples include the Alcida census LSD, [5] based on the Alcida and Dauversière service area of the parish of Beresford LSD, [6] and the Chiasson-Savoy census LSD, which includes a large area [7] to the north of the provincial LSD [8] of the same name.

The census geographic units of Canada are the census subdivisions defined and used by Canada's federal government statistics bureau Statistics Canada to conduct the country's quinquennial census. These areas exist solely for the purposes of statistical analysis and presentation; they have no government of their own. They exist on four levels: the top-level (first-level) divisions are Canada's provinces and territories; these are divided into second-level census divisions, which in turn are divided into third-level census subdivisions and fourth-level dissemination areas.

A local service district (LSD) was a provincial administrative unit for the provision of local services in the Canadian province of New Brunswick. LSDs originally covered areas of the province that maintained some services but were not made municipalities when the province's former county municipalities were dissolved at the start of 1967; eventually all of rural New Brunswick was covered by the LSD system. They were defined in law by the Local Service Districts Regulation of the Municipalities Act. In 2017, the Municipalities Act was replaced by the Local Governance Act, which continued the Local Service Districts Regulation.
