Census figures for the area within a 3.2 km walk-distance radius of the school, population-weighted — not the school's catchment area. Boards determine zoning, and it doesn't necessarily match this radius. Check Thunder Bay Catholic DSB’s website to confirm which school an address is zoned for.

Context only — neighbourhood figures are never part of the school's score.
