COMMUNITY RESOURCES
Housing Conditions Crime Parks Child Care Libraries Programs

The community resource indicators found in this report provide expanded information compared to the indicators found in an earlier MCHP report: Assessing the Health of Children in Manitoba: A Population-Based Study. As with the previous report, our goal for this report was to provide information on some of the community level factors that may have an impact on the health and development of children in Winnipeg and Manitoba. In the graphs shown in this section, as with other sections of the report, neighbourhoods are ordered by socioeconomic status, going from the highest socioeconomic status at the top of the graph, to the lowest, at the bottom. Further, the graphs in this section are coloured to emphasize the SES groups to which the communities belong.

Housing Conditions
Housing conditions can affect both the physical and mental health of residents, and in this section we report three measures that describe housing in Winnipeg communities.
