E1H vs E4Z
New Brunswick
Read this first
This page does not pick a winner. Every row shows two measurements and the gap between them. There is no score, no tally of which area “wins” more categories, and no overall result — those would be a rating of two places and the people who live in them, assembled by the layout.
Both areas are forward sortation areas, and every figure describes the whole of one. Crime is not shown here: it is reported at the metropolitan level, so for two areas in the same city it is usually the same number twice. It is on each area’s own page, with the geography it describes.
Census figures

Each area against its own surroundings
| Measure | E1H | E4Z |
|---|---|---|
| Median household income | about the same as Moncton | 9% lower than New Brunswick |
| Median after-tax income | about the same as Moncton | 6% lower than New Brunswick |
| Median age | 11% higher than Moncton | about the same as New Brunswick |
| Unemployment rate | 19% higher than Moncton | 7% lower than New Brunswick |
| Low income (LIM-AT) | 20% lower than Moncton | 23% higher than New Brunswick |
| Average household size | about the same as Moncton | about the same as New Brunswick |
- E1H is measured against Moncton, the metropolitan area holding 91% of its residents.
- E4Z is measured against New Brunswick: the nearest metropolitan area, Moncton, holds 16% of its residents, which is too little for it to describe this area.
The areas
| Measure | E1H | E4Z |
|---|---|---|
| Province | New Brunswick | New Brunswick |

Getting around
dissemination-block level| Amenity | Within | E1H | E4Z |
|---|---|---|---|
| Grocery store | 1 km walk | 34% | 19% |
| Public transit | 1 km walk | 24% | 0% |
| Park | 1 km walk | 5% | 24% |
| Pharmacy | 1 km walk | 0% | 11% |
| Child care | 1.5 km walk | 35% | 32% |
| Primary school | 1.5 km walk | 10% | 26% |
| Secondary school | 1.5 km walk | 22% | 18% |
| Library | 1.5 km walk | 0% | 19% |
| Health care | 3 km drive | 77% | 30% |
| Employment | 10 km drive | 100% | 100% |
- 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.
Rent
CMHC does not survey a rental zone covering either E1H or E4Z. The survey covers centres of 10,000 people and up, so there is nothing published for either area.
Air quality and nearby facilities
| Measure | E1H | E4Z |
|---|---|---|
| Nearest AQHI station | Moncton · 8.3 km | Moncton · 37 km |
| Current reading | 1 — Low risk | 1 — Low risk |
| Reporting facilities within 10 km | 10 | 1 |
| Reported releases to air | 237 t | 232 t |
- E1H: Measured at Moncton, 8.3 km from E1H. The index runs from 1 upward and combines ozone, fine particulate matter and nitrogen dioxide into one health-risk scale.
- E4Z: Measured at Moncton, 37 km from E4Z. The index runs from 1 upward and combines ozone, fine particulate matter and nitrogen dioxide into one health-risk scale.
