Neighbourhood Improvement Areas are specially-selected and designated neighbourhoods in the City of Toronto found to have inequities on several indicators of well-being. Currently 31 out of 140 neighbourhoods are designated as NIAs as part of the Toronto Strong Neighbourhoods 2020 (TSNS2020) project. This dataset superceded the previous 13 Priority Areas in April 2014. For further details please read the technical documentation found in the download package or visit www.toronto.ca/neighbourhoods.
