Introduction 1.1 This appendix provides details of the baseline information that has informed the sustainability appraisal, and includes a summary of the data collected, comparator data sets, commentary and an indication of how the issue may evolve without intervention. Appendix 3 - Page 2 Publication Salford Local Plan: Development Management and Allocations Document Sustainability Appraisal Appendix 3 Details of Baseline Information 2 Social 2A Population 2.1 There has been a very significant loss of population from the city over the last century, falling some 36% from the peak in 1921 to 2001. The population largely stabilised between 2001 and 2004, following which there has been continuing growth. ONS projections suggest continuing growth in the city’s population reaching around 286,800 by 2037. 2.2 Migration data shows that the principal driver of this later population growth has been down to migration into the city from outside of the UK, providing a net increase of 21,946 people over the period 2002 and 2016. Over this same period Salford saw a net loss of 1,896 people to other parts of the UK. 2.3 Salford’s population is made up of a relatively high proportion of people aged 20 – 29, 17.3% compared with only 13.6% of the North West population and 13.7% of that of England. Lower proportions than the North West and England averages are seen at all ages over 45. 2.4 Population projections suggest that, like the rest of the country, Salford is likely to see an increase in the proportion of ‘older people’ and a decrease in the proportion of ‘working age’ population. Whilst these changes are relatively small compared with those seen at higher geographic levels, the city will still need to plan for the increasing number of older people residing in the city. 2.5 In terms of the household composition, census data from 2011 indicates that the city has relatively large proportions of one person (36.14% compared with 32.2% for the North West and 30.3% for England) and single-parent households (13.5% compared with 12.0% for the North West and 10.6% for England). The 2016 ONS household projections suggest that the proportion of one person households is likely to remain relatively static and projects that 38% of all households in Salford and 33% of all households in England will be one person households in 2037. 2.6 The proportion of minority ethnic population within Salford (15.6%) is higher than the North West (12.9%) average. The proportion is however significantly below that for England (20.1%). Particular concentrations of minority ethnic population are found in Eccles, Broughton, Irwell Riverside, Langworthy, Kersal, Ordsall and Weaste. 2.7 The Local Plan should take account of the above trends, catering for an increasing population and addressing the needs of a changing population, in terms of age, structure, ethnic diversity and household size.
