G0X vs G8V

Quebec

Read this first

Caution:

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

Selected 2021 Census figures for G0X and G8V, 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.

Each area against its own surroundings

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.

Rent

Coverage:

CMHC does not survey a rental zone covering either G0X or G8V. The survey covers centres of 10,000 people and up, so there is nothing published for either area.

Air quality and nearby facilities

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.

The full profiles

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.

Source: Census Profile, 2021 Census (98-401-X). Data current as of 2026-08-12. Statistics Canada Open Licence. Each figure describes a whole forward sortation area. Amenity, rent and air figures carry their own sources and vintages on the area pages.

Compare two other areas

A postal code or a place name on each side. We use the first three characters — the forward sortation area — so both figures describe a whole postal area rather than a street.
