The first four are "universes", and are divided up by subject variables. These four areas are: population, which provides information such as demography, language, mobility, immigration, education, labour force activity and income; family, regarding families and the relationships between household members, both census and economic families; household, regarding the characteristics of a person or a group of persons occupying a private dwelling; and dwelling, describing the characteristics of dwelling units themselves. The fifth section provides information on the geographic terms used in the Census. Information is listed alphabetically within each section for access.--Includes text from document.
