Do these figures describe a specific address in T0J?

No. T0J 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 Alberta rather than for T0J?

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 T0J means Alberta. 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 T0J?

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.

T0J

Alberta — a rural forward sortation area

T0J had a population of 50,752 in the 2021 Census in Alberta. No census metropolitan area covers most of it. Its population density makes it a sparsely populated area.

There were 20,564 private dwellings across 37,637 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 about the same as the national figure.

The share of people in low income (LIM-AT) was 14% 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.

No city comparison. T0J does touch the Medicine Hat census metropolitan area, but only 15% of its residents live inside it. Comparing the whole area against Medicine Hat 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.

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.

0% of T0J’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.
T0J is a rural forward sortation area and can cover a very large territory. The shares below describe its residents, weighted by where they actually live, not the area on a map.

T0J sits inside one CMHC survey zone, Other Centres.

Only 11% of T0J'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, CMHC Rental Market Survey, October 2025, averaged across the survey zones covering T0J.
Unit	Being paid (CMHC)	Reliability
Studio	not published	—
1 bedroom	$1,470	excellent (a)
2 bedrooms	$1,805	excellent (a)
3+ bedrooms	$2,014	excellent (a)

Reliability is CMHC’s own code for how much the sample supports the figure, from excellent to use with caution. Where several zones cover T0J, the weakest of their codes is shown.

89% of T0J's residents live outside any CMHC survey zone and are not represented in the figures tenants pay.
CMHC withholds a figure when too few buildings of that size were surveyed to publish one reliably. A blank is a withheld figure, not a cheap apartment.
Neither figure is "the rent" for this area. One is a survey of buildings, the other a survey of listings, and both describe areas larger than a postal code.

The nearest Air Quality Health Index location is Brooks, 54 km from T0J. That is far enough to be a different airshed, so its reading is not shown here as though it described this area. The index is published for about 130 communities and zones, not continuously across Canada.

Facilities that reported releasing a listed substance to the National Pollutant Release Inventory, within 10 km of T0J. Distance is measured from the edge of the postal area, so a facility inside it shows as inside this area.

392 facilities within 10 km of T0J reported to the inventory. The 12 that released the most to air are listed; the total below covers all of them.

All 392 facilities within 10 km — including the 380 not listed above — together reported 44,232 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.

Crime Severity Index, 2025

90.6

Alberta · 21% higher than the national index of 75.0

Severity indexes for Alberta, 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	Alberta	Canada	Compared
Crime Severity Index	90.6	75.0	21% higher than Canada
Violent Crime Severity Index	102.0	97.2	5% higher than Canada
Non-violent Crime Severity Index	86.8	66.8	30% higher than Canada
Weighted clearance rate	34.9%	36.6%	1.7 percentage points lower 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	Alberta	Canada	Compared
All violations	7,793 per 100,000	6,065 per 100,000	29% higher than Canada
Criminal Code, excluding traffic	7,390 per 100,000	5,585 per 100,000	32% higher than Canada
Violent Criminal Code	1,541 per 100,000	1,443 per 100,000	7% higher than Canada
Property crime	4,400 per 100,000	3,141 per 100,000	40% higher than Canada

Crime Severity Index for Alberta (solid) against Canada (dashed), 2011 to 2025. In 2025 it was higher than in 2011 — 90.6 against 87.5. 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.

T0J is not inside a metropolitan area that publishes crime figures, so the comparison is against Alberta 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.
