Summary
The Survey of Family Expenditures, also known as the Family Expenditure Survey or FAMEX, was designed to provide socio-economic information on families and unattached individuals (spending units) living in private households in the ten provinces of Canada and the cities of Whitehorse and Yellowknife. Part-year spending units, records for which the risk of identification warranted their exclusion, and all records from Whitehorse and Yellowknife have been excluded from this dataset.
Data was collected in the beginning of 1983 for the reference period of 1982.
In 1997 the Survey of Family Expenditures was integrated into the Survey of Household Spending.
Statistics Canada provides a public use microdata file.
