National and subnational mid-year population estimates for the UK and its constituent countries by administrative area, age and sex (including components of population change, median age and population density).

About this dataset

Context

The dataset tabulates the data for the Wales, UT population pyramid, which represents the Wales population distribution across age and gender, using estimates from the U.S. Census Bureau American Community Survey (ACS) 2019-2023 5-Year Estimates. It lists the male and female population for each age group, along with the total population for those age groups. Higher numbers at the bottom of the table suggest population growth, whereas higher numbers at the top indicate declining birth rates. Furthermore, the dataset can be utilized to understand the youth dependency ratio, old-age dependency ratio, total dependency ratio, and potential support ratio.

Key observations

• Youth dependency ratio, which is the number of children aged 0-14 per 100 persons aged 15-64, for Wales, UT, is 34.6.
• Old-age dependency ratio, which is the number of persons aged 65 or over per 100 persons aged 15-64, for Wales, UT, is 26.6.
• Total dependency ratio for Wales, UT is 61.2.
• Potential support ratio, which is the number of youth (working age population) per elderly, for Wales, UT is 3.8.

Annual estimates of population by marital status and living arrangements by age group and sex.

This dataset provides Census 2021 estimates that classify usual residents in England and Wales by their country of birth, this dataset comprises a more detailed breakdown of birth country. The estimates are as at Census Day, 21 March 2021.

Census 2021 rounded migration estimates for local authorities in England and Wales were originally released on 28 June 2022 in rounded form. The bulletin explored change over time, regional variations and the composition of the population by sex and by five-year age group.

This update provides unrounded migration estimates from Country level down to Output Area.

Area type

Census 2021 statistics are published for a number of different geographies. These can be large, for example the whole of England, or small, for example an output area (OA), the lowest level of geography for which statistics are produced.

For higher levels of geography, more detailed statistics can be produced. When a lower level of geography is used, such as output areas (which have a minimum of 100 persons), the statistics produced have less detail. This is to protect the confidentiality of people and ensure that individuals or their characteristics cannot be identified.

Coverage

Census 2021 statistics are published for the whole of England and Wales. Data are also available in these geographic types:

• country - for example, Wales
• region - for example, London
• local authority - for example, Cornwall
• health area – for example, Clinical Commissioning Group
• statistical area - for example, MSOA or LSOA

Country of birth

The country in which a person was born.

For people not born in one of in the four parts of the UK, there was an option to select "elsewhere".

People who selected "elsewhere" were asked to write in the current name for their country of birth.

Census 2021 rounded population and household estimates for local authorities in England and Wales, by sex and five-year age group.

This dataset provides Census 2021 estimates that classify usual residents in England and Wales by national identity and by ethnic group. The estimates are as at Census Day, 21 March 2021.

The increase since the 2011 Census in people identifying as “British” and fall in people identifying as “English” may partly reflect true changes in self-perception. It is also likely to reflect that “British” replaced “English” as the first response option listed on the questionnaire in England. Read more about this quality notice.

This dataset provides population estimates for the local health boards in Wales, for the period from 2009 onwards by sex and single year of age, together with some aggregated age groups. It should be noted that for mid-2020, there are some definitional changes (particularly affecting the migration components) compared with mid-2019 populations estimates data and it is advised users read the Quality and Methodology Information section on the Office for National Statistics website. For Wales, the mid-2021 population estimates are the first population estimates to be based on Census 2021. Internal migration estimates for mid-2023 have been produced using a different method to previous years, following a change to the variables available in the Higher Education Statistics Agency (HESA) data.

The Welsh Government's National Survey for Wales covers a random sample of 12,000 adults a year (aged 16+) living in private households across Wales. The survey provides representative, reliable and up-to-date information about the people of Wales down to local authority level.

The survey began in 2012. In 2015 it was reviewed the decision was taken to amalgamate five large scale social surveys that were carried out in Wales into one. From 2016-17 onwards the National Survey for Wales was expanded to include topics previously covered by the Welsh Health Survey, Active Adults Survey, Arts in Wales Survey, and Welsh Outdoor Recreation Survey.

The aim of the survey is to provide representative, reliable and up-to-date information about the people of Wales down to local authority level. Prior to March 2020, the survey was carried out face-to-face in respondents’ homes. Since May 2020 onwards, the survey has been carried out by telephone. Topics were updated monthly and results published monthly for May to September 2020; from October, topic updates and publications switched to quarterly.

The survey continued in telephone mode for 2021-22 onwards, with an online element added from July 2021.

The National Survey for Wales, 2021/22 and 2022/23: Combined Data study combines two full years of NSW data. Many of the same questions were asked in both years of the survey and this combined dataset only contain these common variables, with an accompanying variable catalogue (see documentation). The two-year combined dataset allows the production of more detailed breakdowns at local authority or health board level and makes it easier to pick up differences between areas. It also allows more in-depth analysis for some smaller subgroups, which would not have been reliable with only one year's worth of survey data.


Main Topics:

The common topics across 2021/22 and 2022/23 were:

• Well-being
• Internet
• Local Authority Services
• Play
• Screen Time for Child
• Health
• GP Services
• Hospitals
• Diet
• Alcohol
• Smoking
• Physical Activity
• Active Travel
• Education
• Tax
• Material Deprivation
• Sport

NHS Wales hospital admissions (Inpatients and daycases) dataset comprising of attendance and clinical information for all hospital admissions: includes diagnoses and operations performed. Includes spell and episode level data.

The data are collected and coded at each hospital. Administrative information is collected from the central PAS (Patient Administrative System), such as specialty of care, admission and discharge dates. After the patient is discharged the handwritten patient notes are transcribed by clinical coder into medical coding terminology (ICD10 and OPCS).

The data held in PEDW is of interest to public health services since it can provide information regarding both health service utilisation and also the incidence and prevalence of disease. However, since PEDW was created to track hospital activity from the point of view of payments for services, rather than epidemiological analysis, the use of PEDW for public health work is not straightforward. For example:

Counts will vary depending on the number of diagnosis fields used e.g. primary only, all fields; There are a number of different things that can be counted in PEDW e.g. individual episodes of care, admissions, discharges, periods of continuous care (group of episodes), patients or procedures. When looking at diagnosis or procedures the number will vary depending on whether you look at only in the primary diagnosis / procedure field or if the secondary fields are also included. Coding practices vary. In particular, coding practices for recording secondary diagnoses is likely to vary for different hospitals. This makes regional variations more difficult to interpret. The validation process led by the Corporate Health Improvement Programme and implemented by Digital Health and Care Wales (DHCW) is aiming to address some of these inconsistencies.

Due to the complexity and pitfalls of PEDW it is recommended that any PEDW requests for public health purposes are discussed with a member of the SAIL team. In turn the SAIL will seek advice from DHCW if required.

This dataset requires additional governance approvals from the data provider before data can be provisioned to a SAIL project.

This is NOT a raw population dataset. We use our proprietary stack to combine detailed 'WorldPop' UN-adjusted, sex and age structured population data with a spatiotemporal OD matrix.

The result is a dataset where each record indicates how many people can be reached in a fixed timeframe (1 hour in this case) from that record's location.

The dataset is broken down into sex and age bands at 5 year intervals, e.g - male 25-29 (m_25) and also contains a set of features detailing the representative percentage of the total that the count represents.

The dataset provides 48420 records, one for each sampled location. These are labelled with a h3 index at resolution 7 - this allows easy plotting and filtering in Kepler.gl / Deck.gl / Mapbox, or easy conversion to a centroid (lat/lng) or the representative geometry of the hexagonal cell for integration with your geospatial applications and analyses.

A h3 resolution of 7, is a hexagonal cell area equivalent to: - ~1.9928 sq miles - ~5.1613 sq km

Higher resolutions or alternate geographies are available on request.

More information on the h3 system is available here: https://eng.uber.com/h3/

WorldPop data provides for a population count using a grid of 1 arc second intervals and is available for every geography.

One of the main use cases historically has been in prospecting for site selection, comparative analysis and network validation by asset investors and logistics companies. The data structure makes it very simple to filter out areas which do not meet requirements such as: - being able to access 70% of the UK population within 4 hours by Truck and show only the areas which do exhibit this characteristic.

Clients often combine different datasets either for different timeframes of interest, or to understand different populations, such as that of the unemployed, or those with particular qualifications within areas reachable as a commute.

The census is undertaken by the Office for National Statistics every 10 years and gives us a picture of all the people and households in England and Wales. The most recent census took place in March of 2021.The census asks every household questions about the people who live there and the type of home they live in. In doing so, it helps to build a detailed snapshot of society. Information from the census helps the government and local authorities to plan and fund local services, such as education, doctors' surgeries and roads.Key census statistics for Leicester are published on the open data platform to make information accessible to local services, voluntary and community groups, and residents. There is also a dashboard published showcasing various datasets from the census allowing users to view data for the MSOAs of Leicester and compare this with Leicester overall statistics.Further information about the census and full datasets can be found on the ONS website - https://www.ons.gov.uk/census/aboutcensus/censusproductsGeneral HealthThis dataset provides Census 2021 estimates that classify usual residents in England and Wales by the state of their general health.
