Oh, how about here: http://www.calgary.ca/PDA/pd/Documents/Publications/calgary-snapshots.pdf
and here:
http://www.calgary.ca/PDA/pd/Documents/Publications/employment-area-growth-2013.pdf
Central area employment 2011: 268K (from first link page 84) of which ~161K is in the Centre City (second link, page A2-1)
SE area employment: 22K (albeit this is before the hospital)
So even if the hospital employs 10K people, the SE is still 230K less jobs than the central area, and 130K less than the centre city.
In fact, the SE is actually the second SMALLEST employment sector in the entire city.
Stop making stuff up and do some actual research before just pulling numbers from the air. |
There was a report a couple years ago that said more people were employed in the eastern industrial parks than DT. On second thought I think that may have encompassed the NE as well though. So I was wrong.
2 things though:
-Is central area just CBD or does it include Beltline?
-The Green line would also run through the employment area of Inglewood and Ramsay Industrial, Ogden, and peripheral to Foothills Industrial park. When I said the SE I meant including the Foothills Industrial Parks. I think your numbers of 22K don't include those because I found it to be something like 78k or so on Google.
