G0J vs G4W

Quebec

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.

Selected 2021 Census figures for G0J and G4W, with the national figure for scale. The last column states the gap between the two areas as a direction and a size, never as a preference.

Median household income	$54,800	$56,000	$84,000	G0J is about the same as G4W
Median after-tax income	$49,600	$50,400	$73,000	G0J is about the same as G4W
Median age	54.4	52.4	41.6	G0J is about the same as G4W
Unemployment rate	10.9%	7.7%	10.3%	G0J is 42% higher than G4W
Low income (LIM-AT)	18.9%	17%	11.1%	G0J is 11% higher than G4W
Average household size	2.1	1.9	2.4	G0J is 11% higher than G4W

How each area sits against the city or province around it — a different geography on each side, named in every cell. Read down a column, not across: the two columns are measured against different places and a bigger gap in one says nothing about the other.

G0J is measured against Quebec: the nearest metropolitan area, Matane, holds 15% of its residents, which is too little for it to describe this area.
G4W is measured against Matane, the metropolitan area holding 100% of its residents.

Counts for each area. These describe the place and are not compared as ratios.

Share of each area’s residents with an amenity within reach, weighted by where people live. A blank is a coverage fact, not a zero.
Amenity	Within	G0J	G4W
Grocery store	1 km walk	43%	74%
Public transit	1 km walk	0%	0%
Park	1 km walk	46%	80%
Pharmacy	1 km walk	2%	39%
Child care	1.5 km walk	53%	95%
Primary school	1.5 km walk	53%	76%
Secondary school	1.5 km walk	17%	1%
Library	1.5 km walk	5%	36%
Health care	3 km drive	59%	100%
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.

CMHC does not survey a rental zone covering either G0J or G4W. The survey covers centres of 10,000 people and up, so there is nothing published for either area.

The air quality index is a reading at the nearest station, which may be far away — the distance is shown because it decides whether the reading describes the area at all. Facility counts are reported releases within 10 km.

G0J: The nearest Air Quality Health Index location is Campbellton, 88 km from G0J. 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.
G4W: The nearest Air Quality Health Index location is Campbellton, 112 km from G4W. 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.

This page carries the figures the two areas can be set against each other on. Each area’s own page has the rest — including crime, the boundary map, and every source note and caveat in full.
