ii Introduction
The Health Status Report is divided into chapters and the first installment of this report will be the Demographics chapter. This will include topics such as covered population, age and gender, population projections, births and natural increase. The other chapters will be added as they are completed. All the chapters are listed in the table of contents. There is also a table containing all indicators that will be covered in this report.

4 1.2.1 Population Density
There are 55,629 residents in the Five Hills Health Region (2004) distributed (not evenly) over 27,700 km2, which is equal to about 2.01 people per square kilometer or 201 per 100 kms2 (Saskatchewan is 167 per 100 kms2). Most of the population is centered in and around Moose Jaw. Assiniboia, Gravelbourg and Caronport are other places that many residents live. There is only one First nation Reserve in Five Hills but most of the registered Indians do not live on it. The map below indicates the population density of the region by the number of people in urban municipalities (Source: Sask Health data).

The population pyramid for FHHR (2004) is similar to that of the Province for 2004. There are a higher proportion of seniors (65+) in the FHHR compared to the province. Most of the population of Five Hills and Saskatchewan is concentrated around the ages of 10 to 20 and 40 to 50. Source: Sask Health.

7 1.3 Projections and Change
Population Projection for Five Hills Health Region, 1971-2021
1.3.1 Population Projection 70000
Is based on Census Data 65000 taken every five years.
60000 The population of Five Hills has been steadily decreasing Actual 55000 since 1986 and is predicted Predicted to keep decreasing for the Number next 15 years. This 50000 decrease is mainly due to the out migration of our 45000 young people seeking employment. 40000 1971 1976 1981 1986 1991 1996 2001 2006 2011 2016 2021 Year
The population of Saskatchewan as a whole, is staying relatively stable since 1996. This is due in Population projection for the Province of Saskatchewan part to younger people staying in the province to 1050000 work as well as older 1040000 people staying in the 1030000 province for their 1020000 retirement. 1010000

8 1.3.2 Population Change
Over the last 10 years, 1993-2003, there has been a steady decrease overall in the population of the Five Hills Health Region, whereas the Population of Saskatchewan has remained relatively steady. In both the FHHR and the Province there was an increase in the population in 1999. This increase is not due to more births or less deaths (natural increase) which will be examined later in this chapter. “Mobility” overleaf, is one of the influencing factors.

9 1.3.3 Mobility
Internal migrant mobility is the percentage of the population who have moved within Canada in the last year (year before 2001 census) or last five years (between 1996 and 2001 census). This mobility includes movement in or out of an area, this case it would be for the Five Hills Health Region and Saskatchewan.
Mobility for FHHR and SK, 2001 FIVE HILLS SASKATCHEWAN 1 year mobility 5.0% 5.4% 5 year mobility 17.0% 16.2% Source: 2001 Census
There is more movement into and out of the region than the province, which may be due to people staying in Saskatchewan but moving in and out of the regions.
1.3.4 Births and Natural Increase
The general trend for the FHHR and the Province is a decrease in births from 1993 to 1999 but has been rising slightly since then. Five Hills has fewer births than the province relative to their perspective populations. The birth rate in FHHR has decreased from 12.5 births per 1000 people to 10 births per 1000 people. This is due in part to the FHHR having a small aboriginal population and a higher older population than the Province. Source: Sask Health

Natural Increase is the number of births over number of deaths per 100 population (%). The Five Hills Health Region has had more deaths than births since 1998; this is due in part to our higher senior population and lower population of new parents. The province has more births than deaths but the rate has been decreasing.

1.4.1 Dependency Ratio
Dependency ratio is the number of dependents (0-14 and 65+ years of age) per 100 working (15-64 years) people. There are slightly more dependents in the FHHR than the province, but the provincial dependents are made up of more children under 15 than elderly, whereas in the FHHR, the two dependent age groups are similar (18.8% and 18.7%).

In general there are more female single parents. Five Hills is no exception. But the FHHR does have less single parent families than the Province.
