Percentage of visible minorities is 1.5 points above that of Canada as a whole.
Percentage with a degree 2.5 points higher, London (less than 1 point below) is closer to the national average here.
Middle Canada or I guess Middle English Canada (Quebec being too much of an outlier) certainly seems to lie in Southwestern Ontario.

I knew K-W has a higher participation rate, but the size of the difference in median household income surprised me. K-C-W these days must be a considerably larger market/economy than London, which feels strange to someone who grew up in K-W.
