  • Chapter 2 Demography

    Chapter 2 Demography

    Chapter 2 Demography Geographical context 2.1 Leicestershire is a landlocked county in central England. It takes its name from the heavily populated City of Leicester, traditionally its administrative centre, although the City of Leicester unitary authority is today administered separately from the County of Leicestershire. The county borders onto Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire, Rutland, Warwickshire, Staffordshire, Lincolnshire and Northamptonshire. 2.2 Much of the built-up area of Leicester City is continuous with adjoining built-up areas of Leicestershire County surrounding it, especially in the districts of Oadby & Wigston and parts of Blaby, Charnwood and Harborough. The built-up area of Leicester is defined for Strategic Planning Policy and known as the Leicester & Leicestershire Principal Urban Area (PUA). The whole of Leicestershire has a strong relationship with Leicester for migration, labour market, regeneration, planning, services and healthcare facilities. Population Estimates 2.3 A broad figure for the current total resident population is about 950,000, or, in very broad terms, nearly a million. According to current Office of National Statistics (ONS) figures, the total population estimate for 2008 is 940,500 for the sub-region of Leicester and Leicestershire, with the local authorities of Leicester City at 294,7001 and the Leicestershire County area at 645,800 resident population. ONS mid- year estimates of resident population are based on counts from the last (2001) census and are updated annually using data on births and deaths occurrences and estimated migration. Figures for local authorities in the area, for selected years, are shown in Table 2.1. The ONS population and migration evidence (referred to as ‘current’) in this report, is as published before their revisions to migration estimates in mid 2010.
