Irene, the ward number and the ED number are different. The ward number is controlled by the city government, the ED number indicates a specific area canvassed by the census taker. A city ward, depending on its size, will have multiple ED districts within it. Susan "Irene J. Landenberger" wrote: > > I'm confused. Is the ward number the same as the ED number?
