The following types of statistics are produced by Statistics Canada for the 2011 NHS:
Profile Files
The National Household Survey (NHS) was conceived to replace the mandatory long-form census questionnaire. The content of the NHS 2011 is similar to the past long-form questionnaire, although some questions and sections have changed. This profile presents information from the 2011 National Household Survey (NHS) for various levels of geography, including provinces and territories, census metropolitan areas/census agglomerations, census divisions, census subdivisions, dissemination areas, federal electoral districts, and forward sortation areas.
Profiles are available in odesi (.csv and .ivt (Beyond 20/20) format, which requires a free viewer to access). Most geographies are also available from the CHASS Census Analyzer (custom data extraction tool), and on the Statistics Canada website.

Other Resources
- Coefficients of Variation (CVs). The CV of an estimate is the ratio of the standard error of the estimate and the estimate itself, expressed as a percentage. The CV is used to give an indication of the uncertainty associated with the estimates. Coefficients of variation are available for selected variables for Canada, provinces and territories.
