AreaScore

Approximate boundaries

Moose Jaw doesn't publish neighbourhood boundaries, so AreaScore draws from the Census areas nearest where the name is placed by Natural Resources Canada, Wikidata, OpenStreetMap or AreaScore's own research. The outline follows Census lines and may not match how residents draw it. Figures marked city-wide are for all of Moose Jaw.
