We usually talk about big cities on this channel - Toronto, Montreal, San Francisco, New York. But most of the same ideas about housing and transportation also apply to smaller cities too. In this video we take a look at Halifax, a smaller city in Atlantic Canada.
Data note:
As indicated in the video, most statistics from the census (on population or commuting) use "population centre" boundaries, previously called "urban area", for the city. These ignore city limits (e.g., the City of Toronto) and include all connected urban (and suburban) area. This is similar to a census metropolitan area or CMA, but it's not the same (CMAs group together multiple municipalities while population centres basically ignore municipal boundaries).
