Alberta Municipal Affairs recognized those conducted by 55 of these municipalities.[6] By municipal status, it recognized those conducted by 8 of Alberta’s 17 cities, 23 of 108 towns, 8 of 95 villages, 4 of 51 summer villages, 1 of 5 specialized municipalities, 3 of 64 municipal districts and all 8 Metis settlements.[6][c] In addition to those recognized by Municipal Affairs, censuses were conducted by the City of St. Albert, the Village of Beiseker and Strathcona County (a specialized municipality).       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Some municipalities achieved population milestones as a result of their 2011 censuses. Calgary surpassed 1.1 million while the cities of Leduc and Fort Saskatchewan surpassed the 25,000 and the 20,000 marks respectively. Chestermere, Alberta’s fourth-largest town, surpassed 15,000 residents.
