Research Update 2011 Census – Key Statistics tables and Quick Statistics tables Ward and Lower Super Output Area level Produced by the Corporate Policy and Performance Team Contacts Tony Doherty x 82144 Jimmy Maravala x 82112 Based on ONS data released on 30th January 2013 1 Introduction As the second phase of the second release of 2011 Census statistics the Office for National Statistics (ONS) has now published: • 35 Key Statistics tables for wards and output areas (summary figures, presented as both numbers and percentages, to allow comparison across different areas). • 70 Quick Statistics tables for wards and output areas (refer to one variable and its response categories from a census question). • Data at ward and lower layer super output area level (geographic area containing circa 1,500 people) is now available for the first time on topics such as ethnicity, religion, health, household composition and economic activity. This briefing focuses on country of birth, main language, ethnicity and religion and, where possible, compares Redbridge data against 2001 Census data and/or the London average. The briefing also sets out links to more detailed data sets and a schedule of future data releases. As this briefing refers to percentages of the total population on a number of pages, actual numbers (and analysis) of total population is also included on page 3. Due to small population size, City of London is not included in any London average calculations, or in London rankings. This leaves a total of 32 London Boroughs and 624 London wards in the ranking scale. Nationally there are 8,562 wards.
