Neighbourhood profiles report offers in-depth analysis into N.B. communities
The City of North Battleford’s project to name and establish boundaries for the city’s neighbourhoods now also includes an in-depth analysis into the makeup of each community.
The study, called City of North Battleford Community Profiles, includes information on neighbourhood demographics and trends.
Some of the information reflected in the report shows the percentage of home ownership, home values, median household income, and rate of unemployment. It also shows the number of schools and available park space in a particular neighbourhood, as well as the total number of residences and type of housing offered.
North Battleford’s City Community Safety Coordinator Herb Sutton, who also works part-time with the local RCMP as a community program coordinator, said appreciating each neighbourhood’s qualities and offerings benefits the community and the city as a whole.
