S0G

Saskatchewan — a rural forward sortation area

In plain English

S0G had a population of 65,896 in the 2021 Census in Saskatchewan. No census metropolitan area covers most of it. Its population density makes it a sparsely populated area.

There were 33,003 private dwellings across 35,864 km².

Median household income was about the same as the national figure.

Median after-tax household income was about the same as the national figure.

The median age was about the same as the national figure.

The unemployment rate was 40% lower than the national figure.

The share of people in low income (LIM-AT) was 24% higher than the national figure.

Average household size was about the same as the national figure.

This is a rural forward sortation area, which can cover a very large territory — figures describe the whole of it, not one community within it.

Note:

No city comparison. S0G does touch the Regina census metropolitan area, but only 21% of its residents live inside it. Comparing the whole area against Regina would describe somewhere most of it is not, so the comparison is left out rather than shown faintly. Province and Canada cover all of it.

Getting around

2021 reference year · dissemination-block level
What this measures:

How close everyday amenities are — not how good they are. Each figure is the share of this area’s residents who have that amenity within the distance shown, weighted by where people actually live.

Residents with a grocery store within a 1 km walk

46 points lower than the national share of 70%

Share of S0G’s residents with each amenity within reach. The proximity index in the last column is scaled against all of Canada, where the national average is close to zero — read it against Canada, never on its own.

0% of S0G’s residents live in a block Statistics Canada classifies as an amenity-dense neighbourhood — one with a grocery store, pharmacy, health care, child care, a primary school, a library, a transit stop and a source of employment all in range. Nationally it is 16%. This is StatCan’s composite, not ours.

Rent

October 2025 · survey-zone level
Read this first:

Two different rents, and neither one is “the rent here”.

CMHC surveys what tenants are paying — including people who have not moved in years — and only in purpose-built rental buildings of three units or more, so it leaves out rented condos, which in the largest cities is most of the market. Statistics Canada measures what is being asked in current listings, across the whole market. If you are staying put the first is closer; if you are moving, the second is.

S0G sits inside one CMHC survey zone, Outlying Areas.

Coverage:

Only 21% of S0G's residents live inside a CMHC survey zone. These figures describe those zones — they are not a rent for the rest of this area, which CMHC does not survey.

Average rent paid in Regina's survey zones covering S0G (CMHC, October 2025), against average asking rent across Regina (Statistics Canada, January 2026). The two are measured differently and are not comparable line by line.

1 bedroomnot published$1,240

Reliability is CMHC’s own code for how much the sample supports the figure, from excellent to use with caution. Where several zones cover S0G, the weakest of their codes is shown.

What this is:

Facilities that reported releasing a listed substance to the National Pollutant Release Inventory, within 10 km of S0G. Distance is measured from the edge of the postal area, so a facility inside it shows as inside this area.

150 facilities within 10 km of S0G reported to the inventory. The 12 that released the most to air are listed; the total below covers all of them.

The 12 largest reporters to air of the 150 within 10 km of S0G, 2024, in tonnes. Quantities are estimated and reported by the facilities themselves.

Crime

2025 · metropolitan-area figures
Read this first:

These figures describe the whole of Regina, Saskatchewan — a metropolitan area — not S0G. Police-reported crime is not published for postal areas anywhere in Canada.

Only 21% of S0G's residents live inside Regina, Saskatchewan. The rest are policed by different services, which report their own figures — so this is not a figure for most of this area.

Crime Severity Index, 2025

Regina, Saskatchewan · 16% higher than the national index of 75.0

Severity indexes for Regina, Saskatchewan, 2025. The Crime Severity Index weights each offence by how serious the courts treat it, so it is an index and not a count — 100 is Canada in 2006.

Common questions

Do these figures describe a specific address in S0G?
No. S0G is a forward sortation area — the first three characters of a postal code — and every figure here describes the whole of it. That is the finest granularity Canadian open data supports; a full six-character postal code requires a licensed Canada Post file. This is a rural forward sortation area, which can cover a very large territory, so the gap between the area and any one community inside it is especially wide.
Why is the crime figure for Regina, Saskatchewan rather than for S0G?
Police-reported crime is not published for postal areas anywhere in Canada. Statistics Canada publishes it by police service, aggregated to metropolitan areas and provinces, which for S0G means Regina, Saskatchewan. There is no municipal feed covering this area, so the regional figure is the finest available.
How current is this profile?
The census figures are from the 2021 Census. The other panels carry their own dates, shown beside each one, because they are published on different schedules — crime annually, CMHC rents each October, asking rents quarterly, and the air quality index live. Each figure is labelled with the vintage it came from rather than the date you are reading it.
Does this page rank or score S0G?
No. There is no score, no grade, no star rating and no ranking against other areas. Every figure is a measurement with a source, a date and a stated granularity, and none of them are combined. The site describes places using published statistics; it does not draw conclusions about the people who live in them.

What this page will not do

Note:

No score, no ranking, no grade. This page will not score this neighbourhood, rank it against another, or present the people who live here as a feature of the place. Every figure above is a measurement with a source, a date and a stated granularity, and none of them are added together.
