Household income shows the combined income of everyone living together. Individual income adjusts this to reflect what a typical person in that household would have. The dashboard uses the square-root equivalence scale: income / sqrt(household size). Canada's average household has about 2.4 people, so individual income = household income / sqrt(2.4). This method is standard in Statistics Canada and OECD income comparisons.

Estimated Employment Income by Age (Individuals,
)
i
Loading chart...
Description
Shows estimated employment income by age, including median and percentile ranges, adjusted for your selected province and household/individual view.
Sources
• Statistics Canada - Canadian Income Survey (employment income by age)
• Canada Revenue Agency - wage growth trends
Methods
• 2022 income levels are adjusted to based on recent wage growth and inflation guidance.
• Statistics Canada publishes income by 5-year age brackets; values for individual ages are smoothed between these brackets.
• Percentiles (10th, 25th, median/50th, 75th, 90th) are interpolated from the same anchors using a smooth log-normal fit guided by national decile ratios (9th/1st and 9th/median ~ 3.4 and 2.0):contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}; see README for details.
• StatsCan values are published in age bins. We anchor each bin at its midpoint and use monotone cubic interpolation (PCHIP-style) between anchors to generate smooth single-year estimates; this adds no new data, only a smooth path between published anchors.
• Results update automatically when the user selects a different province or household/individual view.

Estimated Net Worth by Age (Households,
)
i
Loading chart...
Description
Shows estimated median net worth by age, including typical accumulation during working years and gradual drawdown in retirement, adjusted for your selected province and household/individual view.
Sources
• Statistics Canada - Survey of Financial Security
• Bank of Canada - inflation outlook
Methods
• StatsCan net worth bins anchor each percentile band (10th, 25th, median/50th, 75th, 90th) at the bin midpoint; monotone cubic (PCHIP) smoothing generates single-year values and enforces ordering.
• Ages ≤22 include a student-debt adjustment (~$20K) ramping to the under-35 median; ages ≥72 taper ~3%/yr to reflect retirement drawdown; smoothing precedes taper to avoid steps.
• Percentile spreads use StatsCan-style decile ratios (9th/1st ~3.4; 9th/median ~2.0); median is kept above lower percentiles by construction.
• Province/unit selection rescales all series using region net-worth ratios and the square-root equivalence scale for households; values are projected to using inflation guidance.
• StatsCan values are anchored at bin midpoints; monotone cubic (PCHIP) smoothing adds a smooth path between anchors. Results update automatically based on the selected province and household/individual view.

Focus on consistency rather than catching up. Many Canadians improve long-term outcomes by automating savings and investing regularly, even with small amounts.
If you're roughly on track
Staying invested and avoiding major mistakes often matters more than optimizing every detail.
If you're ahead
The biggest risk is usually unnecessary complexity or over-concentration. Simplicity often wins.
