On 2 November 2022, the Office for National Statistics (ONS) published 'Demography and migration: Census 2021 in England and Wales', which helped form the Welsh Government's publication 'Demography and migration in Wales (Census 2021)'. This was an update to initial population and household estimates, and included an overview of the non-UK born population as well as characteristics of households and residents in Wales. This table is based on Census table TS012, 'Country of Birth (detailed)', which provides Census 2021 estimates that classify usual residents in Wales and England by their country of birth. For Census 2021, the ONS made changes to the data (called statistical disclosure control) so that it is not possible to identify individuals. These changes included: • Swapped records (targeted record swapping), for example, if a household was likely to be identified in datasets because it has unusual characteristics, they swapped the record with a similar one from a nearby small area. Very unusual households could be swapped with one in a nearby local authority. • Added small changes to some counts (cell key perturbation), for example, change a count of four to a three or a five. This might make small differences between tables depending on how the data are broken down when perturbation is applied. This causes small changes to cells but does not fundamentally impact the meaning of the data. Where tables are made in different ways, the changes applied will be different, leading to differences between totals and tables not ‘adding-up’ to their totals. To minimise this, the ONS recommends where possible using totals from tables with fewer cells, at higher geographies. For example, if you wanted population by age you should use data from TS007 and if you wanted population by sex you should use data from TS008. More information about the processes used in statistical disclosure control will be provided in future publications. A usual resident of Wales is anyone who was living or staying in Wales for 12 months or longer on Census Day, 21 March 2021, or who had a permanent address in Wales and was staying outside Wales for less than 12 months.

About this dataset

Context

The dataset tabulates the population of North Wales by gender across 18 age groups. It lists the male and female population in each age group along with the gender ratio for North Wales. The dataset can be utilized to understand the population distribution of North Wales by gender and age. For example, using this dataset, we can identify the largest age group for both Men and Women in North Wales. Additionally, it can be used to see how the gender ratio changes from birth to senior most age group and male to female ratio across each age group for North Wales.

Scope of gender :

Please note that American Community Survey asks a question about the respondents current sex, but not about gender, sexual orientation, or sex at birth. The question is intended to capture data for biological sex, not gender. Respondents are supposed to respond with the answer as either of Male or Female. Our research and this dataset mirrors the data reported as Male and Female for gender distribution analysis.

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.
