Ward Profiles (25-Ward Model)

The 2021 Ward Profiles based on the 25-Ward model (effective December 1, 2018) are available from City Planning. These workbooks contain the data the Profiles are based on, as well as the data the 2016 Ward Profiles (25-Ward Model) were based on. Data from the 2011 National Household Survey is not included.

The 2021 Census Profiles contain Census data from the 2021, 2016 and 2011 Census of Population, including demographic, social and economic information for each Ward in the City of Toronto.

Each Ward Profile provides a snapshot of the population and households in the Ward. The 2021 Ward Profiles contain information on:

  • Population
  • Occupied Private Dwellings
  • Population in Dwellings
  • Households
  • Families
  • Migration and Mobility
  • Indigenous Peoples
  • Ethnocultural Composition
  • Language
  • Education
  • Labour Force
  • Income and Shelter Costs

The 2021 Ward Profiles also include select 2016 and 2011 Census data for comparison purposes. Information from the 2011 Census, from before the 25-Ward model existed, has been adjusted to the current Wards to enable a better understanding of recent population trends and changes.

For more information, please see the Census Glossary and Notes in the Ward Profile portal. Information on the availability of Census of Canada can be obtained from Statistics Canada, www.statcan.ca, or its toll-free access number 1-800-263-1136.

Data will be reviewed and updated about two years after Census Day 2026, depending on the release of data by Statistics Canada and City requests for custom tabulations.

Revision July 2024: The 2011 and 2016 population totals were revised to reflect the population in private occupied households to correspond to the 2021 statistics. The revision affected the total population in private households and the population by age breakdown.
