Our Health Counts: London


Only 14% of Indigenous adults in London completed the 2011 Census. To obtain a representative sample, 80% of households should have completed the Census. Only 9% completed the 2011 National Household Survey (NHS). OHC London study findings indicate that there are 17,108-22,155 Indigenous adults in London. This is 3-4 times more than estimated by Statistics Canada. The 2011 NHS estimated that 5,165 Indigenous adults (15 years+) live in London. The 2016 Census indicated 8,410 Indigenous adults (18 years+) live in London.
