Note(s):

1. Corman Park No. 344, RM (Saskatchewan) – This census subdivision has the following data quality indicators (commonly referred to as data quality flags):
    

   In 2006, the population and/or dwelling counts for this census subdivision were found to be incorrect. Since it is not possible to make changes to the 2006 Census data presented in these tables, the 2006 data should be used with caution. For further details, please refer to the Population and dwelling count amendments, 2011 Census.

   2006 adjusted count; most of these are the result of boundary changes.

2. Median age: Age 'x' that divides a population in two groups of the same population size, one group being older than age 'x' and the other group being younger than age 'x'.
3. Census family: Refers to a married couple (with or without children), a common-law couple (with or without children) or a lone parent family.
4. Household, private: Refers to a person or a group of persons (other than foreign residents) who occupy a private dwelling and do not have a usual place of residence elsewhere in Canada.
5. Household type: Refers to the basic division of private households into family and non-family households. Family household refers to a household that contains at least one census family, that is, a married couple with or without children, or a couple living in common-law with or without children or a lone parent living with one or more children.
6. Couple-family households with children: Refers to couple households with at least one child aged 24 and under.
7. Couple-family households without children: Refers to couple households without children aged 24 and under. Includes couple households with all children aged 25 and over.
8. Lone-parent-family households: Refers to all lone-parent family households regardless of age of children.
9. Multiple-family households: Refers to a household in which two or more census families (with or without additional persons) occupy the same private dwelling.
10. Other households: Refers to two or more people who share a private dwelling, but who do not constitute a census family.
11. Other single-attached house: A single dwelling that is attached to another building and that does not fall into any of the other categories, such as a single dwelling attached to a non-residential structure (e.g., a store or a church) or occasionally to another residential structure (e.g., an apartment building).
12. Movable dwelling includes mobile homes and other movable dwellings such as houseboats and railroad cars.
13. Mother-tongue retention: Retention refers to the situation where people speak their mother tongue at home. Retention is defined as 'complete' when the mother tongue is the language spoken most often and 'partial' when it is spoken on a regular basis but not most often. The (complete or partial) retention rate refers to the proportion of the population with a given mother tongue that speaks that language at home most often or on a regular basis. The retention rate provides an indication of a group's linguistic vitality, particularly the importance of transmitting languages between generations.
