Forward Sortation Area 2016

The Forward Sortation Area Boundary File depicts the boundaries of forward sortation areas (FSAs) derived from postal codes captured from federal census questionnaires. This is based on census dissemination areas. The file is periodically updated, following the federal census which is currently mandated every 5 years (2011, 2016, 2021...).
