The most recent period of construction includes dwellings constructed before Census Day that year. For example, the 1991-1995 period of construction in 1996 data includes a small number of dwellings that were built in early 1996.

The above data are derived from the Census long form (20% of the population).

Please note that a value of 0 may represent a true zero count, unavailable data or suppressed data.

Detailed data are suppressed for communities with population less than 100.
