Within the boundaryWhat's nearby
The boundary
0.1 km²
Every count and every census figure on this page was measured inside this line — not within a circle drawn around a centre point.
Not enough verified data yet. We count schools, parks, transit and shops inside Foldens's real boundary and publish the numbers only once that count is confirmed — an estimate here would be worse than nothing.

Share of occupied homes, by the era they were built in. Bars are drawn against the busiest era, not against each other, because the eras are not the same length. The eight shares are unlikely to total exactly 100: Statistics Canada rounds each era's count to the nearest 5 before publishing it, so we print what the census reports rather than adjusting a figure to make the column add up.
