Housing in Canada : a study based on the Census of 1931 and supplementary data / by Harold F. Greenway. : CS98-1931CM-8E-PDF

"This monograph is one of a series based primarily upon 1931 Census statistics, although census data have been supplemented to a considerable extent by other materials, some primary and some secondary in character. The introductory historical sections have been prepared mainly from secondary sources. The entire lack of any comprehensive treatment of Canadian housing from an historical viewpoint seemed sufficient justification for this brief review. The subsequent analysis, which is purely quantitative, has not the precision and completeness which can be obtained only from intensive surveys of housing. It is believed, however, that the comparisons and measurements which are offered should serve as a useful background for the results of more exhaustive surveys in small areas. Perspective may be obtained for problems related to such broad headings as crowding, tenure and types of dwellings "--Pref., p. 3..
