If Peel Region were a community of 100 people,
it would look something like this...
Overview
In comparison to 2001, 2006 census data reveals that Peel Region has seen a slight increase in its seniors’ population, a greater proportion of foreign-born, a change in its top five source countries for immigrants, an increase in the proportion of those with the highest and lowest education levels, as well as an increasingly diverse linguistic profile. Moreover, it is interesting to note that the area municipality of Brampton increased its share of the total population of Peel Region.
57 villagers aged 15 and older would be in the workforce; (30 males and 27 females).
53 would be employed of which 6 would be self-employed.
4 would be looking for work [3 in 2001].
Nearly half of Peel Village’s workforce would be employed in one of these top-four industries: manufacturing, retail trade, transportation and warehousing, and wholesale trade.
33 villagers would be working or pursuing work in one of these top three occupations:
Of the 78 villagers aged 15 and over, 74 would have some form of income:

13 would be earning $40,000-$59,999 [13 in 2001],
12 would be earning more than $60,000 per year [12 in 2001],
Peel villagers would have a median income of $27,879 [$27,969 in 2001].
