Description This southern Ontario riding takes in the western part of Hamilton, part of the West Mountain and part of the downtown core.

It runs from Hamilton Harbour in the north to the Niagara Escarpment, West 5th Street and Lincoln Alexander Parkway in the south, between Ottawa Street North and South and Highway 403.

A large part of the population lives in apartment complexes in the downtown area. Renters outnumber homeowners in the riding 56 per cent to 44 per cent.

The economy relies on the manufacturing industry and service sector. Stelco and part of Dofasco steelworks fall within the riding. Average family income is $52,769 and the unemployment rate is 8.9 per cent.

In the 2004 redistribution, the Hamilton Centre riding was created from 75 per cent of Hamilton West, 42 per cent of Hamilton East and a small area from Ancaster-Dundas-Flamborough-Aldershot.

Population: 118,186
