Wakefield Seven Area Profile Selection: Wakefield Central Statistics, Charts and Maps Describing Wakefield's Area Working Areas InstantAtlas™ Server 6 Wakefield Seven Area Profile Selection: Wakefield Central Statistics, charts and maps describing Wakefield's Area Working areas. Introduction A wide variety of social, economic and cultural conditions exist across the Wakefield district, and these combine to create a patchwork of distinctive communities and neighbourhoods. These differences may prompt agencies to deliver services in particular ways and the priorities for local people in one area may be different to those of people living in another area. The Wakefield Together area working model has been developed to reflect and address the differences that exist across the district. For the purposes of area working, the district is divided into seven areas: Castleford; Normanton and Featherstone; Pontefract and Knottingley; South East; Wakefield Central; Wakefield North West; and Wakefield Rural. Some of the seven areas also include ‘priority neighbourhoods’ where intelligence suggests that specific targeted support is required. There are 12 priority neighbourhoods in the district overall. The Council’s Performance and Intelligence Team, collaborating with partners, has developed a set of more detailed reports to focus on each of the seven areas in turn. This report focuses on the Wakefield Central area. The aim of the report is to help people understand local conditions and the changes that occur over time. The report draws on both quantitative and qualitative information from a wide range of sources – both national and local. Profile created: 9/1/2017 Key Points Population Profile The proportion of people satisfied with their local area as a place to live has risen significantly in the 12 months to December 2015, and is now higher than the district average. The age profile of the population is younger than the district average and age profile hasn't changed greatly over the last 10 years. This is in contrast to many other areas, where the population profile has become older. At the time of the 2011 census 21.6% of the population were from an ethnic minority - this is the highest proportion of all the seven areas . Across the district as a whole the figure was 7.2%. The largest ethnic group is Pakistani (7.4% of the total population), followed by White Other (6.1%). Around 1,760 people living in Wakefield Central were born in Poland, and around 1,460 people were born in Pakistan. Around 23% of households are one person households. This is higher than the district average (16.7%). Levels of poverty in Wakefield Central are the second-highest of all the seven areas. According to the Index of Multiple Deprivation (2015), 36% of people live in neighbourhoods among the top-10% most-deprived in England. By some measures, Wakefield Central also has the highest levels of child poverty of all the seven areas. The most deprived parts of Wakefield Central are the Priority Neighbourhoods of Eastmoor, Lupset, Portobello and the City Centre. In addition, the Peacock Estate and parts of Flanshaw in the north west of the area also have high levels of deprivation. Employment and Skills Over recent years the amount of employment based in Wakefield Central has remained fairly static, but fell by 4% in 2015. The area's jobs profile is characterised by large amounts of employment in public administration (15%), retail (14%) and business administration and support services (13%). The occupation profile of people who live in Wakefield Central is broadly similar to the district average. The proportion of people claiming unemployment benefits has fallen over the past year - as it has elsewhere - but the claiming rate remains the highest of all the seven areas by a large margin. At the time of 2011 Census, the qualifications profile of people living in Wakefield Central were similar to the district average. Housing and Infrastructure The tenure profile for households in Wakefield Central is different from the district average. There are lower levels of home ownership and higher levels of renting from social landlords (36% of households) and private landlords (15% of households). Around 2,200 households are affected by fuel poverty - the proportion of households affected is higher than the district average. Sales of homes fell sharply at the start of the economic downturn - the sharpest drop of all the seven areas. Since then the volume of sales has started to increase again slowly. In 2015 there were 137 new homes sold. At the time of the 2011 Census the proportion of households with no car or van (38%) was considerably higher than the district average (27%). The trend in road traffic accidents involving casualties has been fairly static over the past five years. Health For the area as a whole the 2011 Census showed that the general health profile was slightly better than the district average, although the proportion of people in bad health is still higher than the England average. Around 31% of adults smoke - the highest proportion for all the seven areas. Around 56% of adults are overweight or obese. Life expectancy is below the Wakefield average. Community Safety Perceptions of anti-social behaviour (ASB) tend to be around the district average, except for problems with noisy neighbours and drunken and rowdy behaviour, which are a bigger problem in Wakefield Central than most areas. Perceptions of most types of ASB have been improving. There was a marked drop in vehicle crime during May and June 2016. Environment and Climate Change Average domestic gas consumption has fallen over the past five years and is lower than the district average consumption. Perceptions of rubbish and litter problems have improved significantly and are now better than the district average. This summary was written in Oct 2016 using the latest data available at that time. Some of the data in this profile may have changed since then. The summaries are revised every six months. Area Satisfaction In the 12 months to Mar-2016 satisfaction with Wakefield Central as a place to live (82.6%) was higher than the district average (79.1%). The trend over time is shown in the chart below. Q1 Overall, how satisfied are you with your local area as a place to live? Population Profile Population Size The most accurate population estimates are produced every ten years from the Census. These are updated annually using administrative data to produce mid- year population estimates. The mid-2014 estimates show that the size of the resident population in Wakefield Central is 49,087 people. The tables below shows the percentage breakdown by age groups and gender. The actual number of people in each age group is shown in brackets.

In 2001, the district's ethnic population represented just 3.3% of the total population, but the 2011 Census shows this has risen to 7.2%. This proportion, though, is much lower than the England average of 20.2%. A large part of the district increase in the ethnic minority population has been due to immigration from Eastern Europe, particularly from Poland. There has also been continued immigration from South Asia, and a small but growing number of people immigrating from Africa. The ethnic mix for this area is shown in the table below. Population by Ethnicity (% of total population) Wakefield Central Wakefield England White: English/Welsh/Scottish/Northern Irish/British 78.4% (37549 people) 92.8% 79.8% White: Irish 0.4% (200 people) 0.3% 1.0% White: Gypsy or Irish Traveller 0.2% (76 people) 0.1% 0.1% White: Other White 6.1% (2937 people) 2.3% 4.6% Mixed/multiple ethnic group: White and Black Caribbean 0.5% (231 people) 0.3% 0.8% Mixed/multiple ethnic group: White and Black African 0.3% (129 people) 0.1% 0.3% Mixed/multiple ethnic group: White and Asian 0.6% (302 people) 0.3% 0.6% Mixed/multiple ethnic group: Other Mixed 0.3% (142 people) 0.2% 0.5% Asian/Asian British: Indian 0.9% (431 people) 0.5% 2.6% Asian/Asian British: Pakistani 7.4% (3543 people) 1.5% 2.1% Asian/Asian British: Bangladeshi 0.0% (13 people) 0.0% 0.8% Asian/Asian British: Chinese 0.4% (170 people) 0.3% 0.7% Asian/Asian British: Other Asian 1.1% (518 people) 0.4% 1.6% Black/African/Caribbean/Black British: African 2.1% (1014 people) 0.6% 1.8% Black/African/Caribbean/Black British: Caribbean (% of total population) 0.2% (91 people) 0.1% 1.1% Black/African/Caribbean/Black British: Other Black (% of total population) 0.2% (100 people) 0.1% 0.5% Other ethnic group: Arab (% of total population) 0.4% (181 people) 0.1% 0.4% Other ethnic group: Any other ethnic group 0.5% (251 people) 0.2% 0.6% Source: 2011 Census, Office for National Statistics The 2011 Census also provides information about people's country of birth.

  • Wakefield, West Riding: the Economy of a Yorkshire Manor
    WAKEFIELD, WEST RIDING: THE ECONOMY OF A YORKSHIRE MANOR By BRUCE A. PAVEY Bachelor of Arts Oklahoma State University Stillwater, Oklahoma 1991 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS May, 1993 OKLAHOMA STATE UNIVERSITY WAKEFIELD, WEST RIDING: THE ECONOMY OF A YORKSHIRE MANOR Thesis Approved: ~ ThesiSAd er £~ A J?t~ -Dean of the Graduate College ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am deeply indebted to to the faculty and staff of the Department of History, and especially the members of my advisory committee for the generous sharing of their time and knowledge during my stay at O.S.U. I must thank Dr. Alain Saint-Saens for his generous encouragement and advice concerning not only graduate work but the historian's profession in general; also Dr. Joseph Byrnes for so kindly serving on my committee at such short notice. To Dr. Ron Petrin I extend my heartfelt appreciation for his unflagging concern for my academic progress; our relationship has been especially rewarding on both an academic and personal level. In particular I would like to thank my friend and mentor, Dr. Paul Bischoff who has guided my explorations of the medieval world and its denizens. His dogged--and occasionally successful--efforts to develop my skills are directly responsible for whatever small progress I may have made as an historian. To my friends and fellow teaching assistants I extend warmest thanks for making the past two years so enjoyable. For the many hours of comradeship and mutual sympathy over the trials and tribulations of life as a teaching assistant I thank Wendy Gunderson, Sandy Unruh, Deidre Myers, Russ Overton, Peter Kraemer, and Kelly McDaniels.

  • The Records of the Manor of Wakefield: a Unesco
    When quoting from this resource, please acknowledge the author and YAHS. THE RECORDS OF THE MANOR OF WAKEFIELD: A UNESCO-RECOGNISED RESOURCE Brian Barber This introduces the records of the manor of Wakefield and describes the role which the Yorkshire Archaeological and Historical Society has played in their survival and interpretation. Since 1943, the Wakefield court rolls and related records in Wakefield manorial archives have come into the ownership of YAHS. In 2015, the society transferred them to the safekeeping of the Special Collections department of the University of Leeds Brotherton Library, where (subject to the physical condition of individual items) they remain available to all. The greater part of the court rolls, the rolled parchment (and, from the mid-eighteenth century, paper) files of its court proceedings – known as ‘court rolls’ – are of major historical significance. Their national importance to the history of Great Britain was recognised in 2011 when they were entered on the UK National Register of the Memory of the World by the UK National Commission of UNESCO. A catalogue of the Wakefield manorial archives, and information about how to access them, can be found at: https://library.leeds.ac.uk/special-collections- explore?archiveRefCode=%22YAS%2FMD225%22 For more than a century, the society has been working to promote the study of the rolls and to uncover their contents. Up to the present (December 2017), the outcome has been the publication of twenty-five volumes of records relating to the manor, containing the text of dozens of court rolls. Most of the volumes are still in print and available for purchase, or are available via the YAHS website (see below).
