The BC CDC has recently shared the number of COVID-19 cases by Local Health Area. They included a map which has a colour-coded representation of the cases per 100,000. To help quantify the data further, I thought I would create a chart which shows the new case rate for August.
This chart is based on new COVID-19 cases as shown in the following table. The new cases are extrapolated from the cumulative number of COVID-19 cases from January until the end of July, and January until the end of August. You can read my prevoius post to see a chart from January until the end of July. Data is from the BC CDC, and the 2019 municipal population estimates.
| Municipal Area | Population | Cumulative Cases - End of August |
Cumulative Cases - End of July |
August New Cases | Rate per 100,000 |

| Ridge Meadows | 110,950 | 119 | 96 | 23 | 21 |
| Delta | 109,490 | 101 | 62 | 39 | 36 |
| Mission | 43,202 | 175 | 158 | 17 | 39 |
| Langley | 158,642 | 219 | 138 | 81 | 51 |
| Abbotsford | 158,457 | 561 | 454 | 107 | 68 |
