4 City of Little Canada Demographics People’s experiences and perceptions of belonging within a community can be influenced in part by aspects of their identity. While everyone has a unique set of circumstances that shape their life and outcomes, people who share certain identities - such as gender, race, or age - may have similar experiences or perceptions. Understanding the diversity in our community is important as we examine whether this is a community where all feel welcomed and included. Data sources for this section are based on the 2023 American Community Survey from the United States Census Bureau or Decennial Census. The tables and graphs used to illustrate the city's demographics by race contain the official terms for race groups as defined by the U.S. Office of Management and Budget. We use these terms for consistency with the Census Bureau while emphasizing the following: each group has considerable diversity. Many people prefer to be called by specific cultural community names rather than the federal government’s broad labels.
