Peel’s Strategic Plan includes 20-year goals with an ultimate vision ofcreating a Community for Life. Census data from this release is used to

inform and achieve our goals of…“Ensuring access to services that meet our residents’ needs at all stages of life”,

“Supporting a variety of affordable housing options across Peel”, and “Creating communities where the built environment promotes healthy living”

ComparabilityData from this portion of the 2016 Census can be freely compared to that of the 2011 Census, since it

wasn’t part of the voluntary National Household Survey.
