Do these figures describe a specific address in S6V?

No. S6V 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. Conditions on one street can differ from the area average.

Why is the crime figure for Saskatchewan rather than for S6V?

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 S6V means 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 S6V?

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.

0% of S6V’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.

These measure how close an amenity is, never its quality. A school 500 m away is a school 500 m away — nothing here says anything about the school itself.
The proximity index is scaled against all of Canada, where 1 is the single most well-served block in the country and the national average is close to zero. It is useful for comparing places and misleading as a score.

Air Quality Health Index at Prince Albert

Low risk · 9:00 AM CST Thursday 13 August 2026

The Air Quality Health Index combines ozone, fine particulate matter and nitrogen dioxide into one health-risk scale. It is a reading at a station, not a measurement of any address.
Station	Prince Albert
Distance from S6V	3.0 km
Reading	1 — Low risk
Highest forecast	1

Measured at Prince Albert, 3.0 km from S6V. The index runs from 1 upward and combines ozone, fine particulate matter and nitrogen dioxide into one health-risk scale.

Facilities that reported releasing a listed substance to the National Pollutant Release Inventory, within 10 km of S6V. Distance is measured from the edge of the postal area, so a facility inside it shows as inside this area.

Reported releases to air, 2024, in tonnes. Quantities are estimated and reported by the facilities themselves.
Facility	Distance	Substances	Released to air
JW Oliver Waste Water PlantPrince Albert · Water and Wastewater Systems	inside this area	3	10 t
white starWhite Star · Other (Except Manufacturing)	0.4 km	1	1 t

Together these facilities reported 11 t released to air in 2024. That is what was reported within 10 km — not what reached this area, which depends on stack height, wind and chemistry that this inventory does not model.

The inventory is threshold-based: a facility reports only when it exceeds a quantity for a listed substance. Smaller emitters, road traffic, home heating and agriculture are not in it.
Quantities are reported by the facilities themselves and are estimates, not measurements at the fence line. Being close to a facility is not the same as being exposed to what it reports.

These figures describe the whole of Saskatchewan — a province or territory — not S6V. Police-reported crime is not published for postal areas anywhere in Canada.

Crime Severity Index, 2025

146.6

Saskatchewan · 95% higher than the national index of 75.0

Severity indexes for 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.
Measure	Saskatchewan	Canada	Compared
Crime Severity Index	146.6	75.0	95% higher than Canada
Violent Crime Severity Index	194.3	97.2	100% higher than Canada
Non-violent Crime Severity Index	128.8	66.8	93% higher than Canada
Weighted clearance rate	41.1%	36.6%	4.4 percentage points higher than Canada

Reported incidents per 100,000 residents, 2025. These count incidents without weighting them by seriousness, so they are not comparable with the indexes above.
Violations	Saskatchewan	Canada	Compared
All violations	13,139 per 100,000	6,065 per 100,000	2.2× higher than Canada
Criminal Code, excluding traffic	11,938 per 100,000	5,585 per 100,000	2.1× higher than Canada
Violent Criminal Code	2,582 per 100,000	1,443 per 100,000	79% higher than Canada
Property crime	5,941 per 100,000	3,141 per 100,000	89% higher than Canada

Crime Severity Index for Saskatchewan (solid) against Canada (dashed), 2011 to 2025. In 2025 it was about the same as in 2011 — 146.6 against 143.6. A change in the index can come from a change in the number of offences, in how serious they were, or in how many were reported to police.

S6V is not inside a metropolitan area that publishes crime figures, so the comparison is against Saskatchewan as a whole.
The Crime Severity Index weights offences by seriousness and is set so that Canada in 2006 = 100. A rate per 100,000 counts incidents without weighting them. The two are not interchangeable and should not be compared to each other.
