Population Estimates differ from census counts as they account for individuals not covered by the census. These estimates will be updated annually as new information becomes available.

Prepared by NWT Bureau of Statistics

The following information is suppressed:

• Estimates for communities with a population of 50 or less.
• All cell details for communities with a total population of 100 or less.
• All cell values of 10 or less.
• Unorganized areas.

Population projections incorporate assumptions regarding fertility, mortality and migration patterns. These assumptions are reflective of historical patterns, as well as recent trends observed for the Northwest Territories. These estimates will be updated on an annual basis to accomodate the base for the current year as well as any changes in the model assumptions.
