Marpole density map

[LaGrandeOurse]

Marpole dissemination area density map. Dissemination area is the smallest geographic entity that data is made available by statistic canada. I've search for density map on the web and I've only find ones based on census tract, which is a combination of dissimenation area.

There is also an indication of the type of housing in percentage. The pourcentage may not add up to 100% because statistic canada rounds the numbers for privacy matters.
U: single/detached
S: semi detached
R: row house/town house
D: apartment duplex
T: apartment with fewer than 5 stories
F: apartment with 5 stories or more

How does someone from Gatineau even know what Marpole is? And what exactly is the purpose of this post?

I know the data is old (2011 census) and there is no new information but I just thought it could interet someone that lives in the neighborhood.
I made a few density map of neighborhoods around north america just to compare it with the one I live in now.

Thanks for the work, what made you pick Marpole as a comparison to your neighborhood?

Ebume park isn't part of marpole?

Thanks for this! The triangle between 70th and Marine must be one of the densest parts of the city.

Density isn't inversely proportional to the distance from the center the region.
You see that marpole is densier than many other neighborhoods that are closer to the core. I live in such a neighborhood aswell.

Yes but it is in the same dissemination area as the commercial/industrial zone south of marine dr. so I didn't even bother to but the density of the area.
