Place Types in Canada based on Aggregate Dissemination Areas
Listed in Borealis
In a research note published in CJPS, we propose a new typology of geographic places for use in advancing Canadian politics research on the political effects of place.
Description
We use hierarchical cluster analysis to inductively derive place types from Aggregate Dissemination Areas (ADAs), a fine-grained unit of geography covering all of Canada, newly available from Statistics Canada. Using this approach, we uncover seven distinct place types, adding nuance to earlier more aggregated approaches focused on urban-rural (or urban-suburban-rural) distinctions.
Here, we make these data available for other researchers
