T0B vs T0C

Alberta

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 T0B and T0C, 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.

Counts for each area. These describe the place and are not compared as ratios.
Measure	T0B	T0C
Population	63,070	62,815
Private dwellings	28,586	29,839
Land area	30,127 km²	18,267 km²

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	T0B	T0C
Grocery store	1 km walk	22%	23%
Public transit	1 km walk	0%	0%
Park	1 km walk	23%	25%
Pharmacy	1 km walk	11%	13%
Child care	1.5 km walk	16%	24%
Primary school	1.5 km walk	18%	21%
Secondary school	1.5 km walk	13%	20%
Library	1.5 km walk	22%	27%
Health care	3 km drive	26%	30%
Employment	10 km drive	71%	69%

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.

What tenants pay, from CMHC’s survey of purpose-built rental buildings. The two areas may sit in different survey zones, or one may not be surveyed at all — that is a coverage fact and is stated rather than left blank.
Unit	T0B	T0C
Studio	not published	not published
1 bedroom	$1,147	$1,147
2 bedrooms	$1,487	$1,487
3+ bedrooms	not published	not published

Only 6% of T0B'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.

Only 15% of T0C'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.

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.

T0B: The nearest Air Quality Health Index location is Lamont County, 91 km from T0B. 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.
T0C: The nearest Air Quality Health Index location is Red Deer, 56 km from T0C. 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.
