CENSUS 1981
THE NORTHERN IRELAND CENSUS 1981
1981 Towns and Villages Booklet
Census Office McAuley House 2-14 Castle Street Belfast BTl ISA 1991 CENSUS - TOWNS AND VILLAGES
The boundaries for towns, villages etc. have been determined by Census Office using the Irish Grid Square system. Rectangles covering the built up areas have been drawn on a best fit basis. The South West and North East co-ordinates of the rectangle are listed at each entry.
Although boundaries have been set as accurately as possible to the edges of populated areas, it has been necessary in some cases, to expand the co-ordinates used to the nearest 1km reference. This allows for the aggregation of data for all properties within the given area, whether coded to four figure (1km) or six figure (100 metre) grid references.
Figures from the 1971 and 1981 censuses for the same grid references are available on request, from Census Office.
It should be noted that the 1971 Census was carried out on a population present basis and that the 1981 figures are as enumerated and were not adjusted to allow for non-enumeration.
