For information on the basic demographic characteristics of PEDs, please refer to the 2 A
\ P ED profile series covering all households (100% sample data) which was produced in
April of 1993. Characteristics covered include population, marital status, families,
households, dwellings and mother tongue.
On some Indian reserves and hidian settlements in the 1991 Census, enumeration was not
permitted or was interrupted before it c ould be completed. Data are therefore not
available for the incompletely enumerated reserves and settlements, and are not included
in the profiles. Four PEDs are affected: Bonnyville, Lac La Biche-St. Paul, Lesser Slave
Lake and Ponoka-Rimbey. Users are advised to refer to the appendices for further
information regarding data quality, definitions and the electoral map.
