For this census year only, municipalities are not required to submit a request for approval to the Minister if they choose to conduct a census during the two optional time periods offered. Municipalities choose to conduct their own censuses for multiple reasons such as to better inform municipal service planning and provision, to capitalize on per capita based grant funding from higher levels of government, or to simply update their populations since the last federal census.http://municipalaffairs.alberta.ca/documents/msb/2015-Municipal-Census-Manual.pdf Municipal Census Manual: Requirements and Guidelines for Conducting a Municipal Census Alberta Municipal Affairs 7 978-1-4601-2127-6 February 2015 February 21, 2016 With the dissolution of the villages of Galahad and Strome on January 1, 2016, Alberta had 354 municipalities in 2016.http://municipalaffairs.alberta.ca/cfml/officials/2016-lgcode.pdf 2016 Municipal Codes Alberta Municipal Affairs January 18, 2016 February 21, 2016 Alberta Municipal Affairs recognized those conducted by 21 (21 354 1) of these municipalities.http://municipalaffairs.alberta.ca/documents/msb/2016_Municipal_Affairs_Population_List.pdf 2016 Municipal Affairs Population List Alberta Municipal Affairs 978-1-4601-3127-5 January 13, 2017 https://web.archive.org/web/20170116155759/http://municipalaffairs.alberta.ca/documents/msb/2016_Municipal_Affairs_Population_List.pdf January 16, 2017 dead mdy-all By municipal status, it recognized those conducted by 11 of Alberta's 18 cities, 5 of 108 towns, 2 of 90 villages, and 3 of 64 municipal districts.No censuses were conducted among Alberta's 5 specialized municipalities, 51 summer villages, 3 special areas and 8 improvement districts. lower-alpha In addition to those recognized by Municipal Affairs, a census was planned by the Village of Forestburg for 2016 but was subsequently deferred to 2017. thumb|250px|alt=View of Cochrane |Cochrane, Alberta's second-largest town, surpassed a population of 25,000 in 2016.
