The District of Nipissing has a population of approximately 85,000 people covering 17,000 square kilometers. This includes 11 municipalities, two First Nations and two unorganized areas: Nipissing North and Nipissing South. Given its vast region, including both small urban cities as well as many rural communities, service planning must take into consideration their varying experiences and needs. In order to better understand and address needs, the District was divided into 18 neighbourhoods, which were formed by joining multiple Census Dissemination Areas (DAs).*
*A dissemination area is a small area composed of one or more neighbouring dissemination blocks and is the smallest standard geographic area for which all census data are disseminated.
