Jobs & income Grade

On jobs and income, Centreville-Wareham-Trinity grades D−

Better than 2% of Canadian towns on three measures together.

In work, 15 to 64 39% · Census 2021Behind almost every Canadian town
Median household income $56,100 · Census 2020Better than 6% of Canadian towns
Average commute 29 min · Census 2021Better than 25% of Canadian towns

Its strongest measure is trip times; its weakest, the share of 15-to-64s in work.

Graded against Canadian towns of 2,500 people or more; less unemployment and a shorter commute count in its favour.

How the grade works

Census 2021 measures, weighed equally against every Canadian town and neighbourhood of 2,500 people or more: the share of residents aged 15 to 64 in work, median household income (2020), the unemployment rate and the average commute. Each becomes a percentile; their average sets the letter.

In October 2026, 43% of the wider area’s adults had a job, on the Labour Force Survey’s count. The labour force, people 15 and over with a job or seeking one, took in 33% of residents that age. Take in all adults, retirees with them, and only 22% were working. May 2021, when the census was taken, was a pandemic spring; unemployment has come down since, as the Labour Force Survey records.

How to read these numbers

What this data can and can’t tell you

What each figure measures for Centreville-Wareham-Trinity, where it comes from, and what it leaves out.

  • Unemployment. The share of people 15 and over in the labour force, working or looking for work, who had no job on census day in May 2021.
  • Household income. Before-tax total income of the middle household for 2020, from the census. Neighbourhood medians are worked out from bracket counts, since Statistics Canada publishes none of their own.
  • Trip times. How long getting to work normally takes, averaged from the census’s time bands at their middles; expect it to read slightly high against the timed figure.
  • Employment Insurance. How many people in the census division drew Employment Insurance each month; it moves with layoffs and hiring, yet people who don’t qualify are absent from it.
  • The Labour Force Survey. A monthly household survey by Statistics Canada, reported for metro areas and economic regions only. It supplies a recent rate next to the 2021 census figure.
  • In work. Everyone with a job, whatever their age, divided by the residents aged 15 to 64 at the 2021 Census: below the municipality the census doesn’t split work by age, and this is the one rate every town and neighbourhood can be given.
  • Which towns we compare. Towns and city neighbourhoods of 2,500 people or more, never a whole city and never a First Nations reserve. Middles are medians.
