Cambridge was the fastest growing city in the United Kingdom between 2013 and 2023, with its population increasing by 17.3 percent. Exeter, Milton Keynes, and Peterborough also grew quite fast, with their populations increasing by 15.2 percent, 14.9 percent, and 14 percent, respectively. Largest UK urban areas When looking at cities defined by their urban agglomerations, as of 2023, London had approximately 9.65 million people living there, far larger than any other city in the United Kingdom. The urban agglomeration around the city of Birmingham had a population of approximately 2.67 million, while the urban areas around Manchester and Leeds had populations of 2.79 and 1.92 million respectively. London not only dominated other UK cities in terms of its population, but in its importance to the UK economy. In 2023, the gross domestic product of Greater London was approximately 569 billion British pounds, compared with 101 billion for Greater Manchester, and 85 billion in the West Midlands Metropolitan Area centered around Birmingham. UK population growth In 2023, the overall population of the United Kingdom was estimated to have reached approximately 68.3 million, compared with around 58.9 million in 2000. Since 1970, 2023 was also the year with the highest population growth rate, growing by 0.98 percent, and was at its lowest in 1982 when it shrank by 0.12 percent. Although the UK's birth rate has declined considerably in recent years, immigration to the UK has been high enough to drive population growth in the UK, which has had a positive net migration rate since 1994.

Cambridgeshire County Council's Research Group produces population and dwelling stock forecasts for Cambridgeshire and Peterborough. Forecasts are provided at county, district and ward level for the years 2016, 2021, 2026, 2031 and 2036. Population forecasts are provided for specified age groups for these years. These forecasts are not the latest figures available, 2018 based forecasts can be accessed here.

This dataset is intended for researchers, students, and policy makers for reference and mapping purposes, and may be used for basic applications such as viewing, querying, and map output production, or to provide a basemap to support graphical overlays and analysis with other spatial data.

The data was gathered by over 1000 surveyors mainly between the years 1999 and 2003 from both coastal and inland colonies. EngDescr=The main objectives of the survey were: (1) to obtain distribution and population information for all 25 species of seabird that regularly breed in the UK; and (2) to get baseline figures for those species that have been surveyed poorly up to now.

To meet these objectives a set of count sections were set up throughout Britain and Ireland and counts were made for all species.

The dataset comprises detailed counts of seabirds together with: habitat information, predator information, count units, weather conditions on the day of the count.

The spatial coverage was dependent on species with colonial nesting seabirds having virtually complete coverage; whereas, other species, notably some gull species having much less coverage.

For a full description of the survey methodology, see 'Seabird Populations of Britain and Ireland' (2004), Mitchell, P.I., Newton, S.F., Ratcliffe, N. and Dunn, T.E. Published by T & AD Poyser.

The Seabird 2000 dataset contains some additional attributes in addition to the general NBN Gateway attributes (see NBN metadata).
