Earl’s Court Ward Profile Introduction

The Census occurs once every ten years, the most recent of which fell on 27 March 2011. This report gives a summary of Census data for Earl’s Court ward.

In 2014, each ward in Kensington and Chelsea had changes made to its ward boundaries meaning that no Census data exists specifically for these new wards by the Office for National Statistics. To alleviate the data gap, this summary uses Output Areas (OAs) as the building blocks for the new wards. OAs are the smallest Census geography, containing circa 150 residents. OAs are allocated using a best fit model, therefore ensure that these profiles are treated, and the numbers they contain, as being illustrative only.

For ease of use Census data has been subdivided into three distinct themes:

- Who we are... Population, ethnic group, country of birth, passports held, religion, health

- How we live... Marital status, living arrangements, household composition, accommodation, tenure, car or van availability, overcrowding

- What we do... Economic activity, hours worked, qualifications and students, industry, occupation, unpaid care

Disclaimer: All data relates to the Census 2011 figures released by the ONS and all figures are rounded to one decimal place in the text and one significant figure in the charts.
