Office for National Statistics Longitudinal Study, 1971-
Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner.This is a dataset comprising linked event records for 1% of the population of England and Wales (about 500,000 people at any one census). It was set up in 1974 to address problems with the adequacy of occupational mortality data, and the lack of longitudinal fertility data, but since then it has been used to address a wide range of other research questions. Main Topics:Topics cover: all information from census returns since 1971, including data on occupation, economic activity, housing, ethnicity, age, sex, marital status and educationevent data on births and deaths, fertility, mortality, morbidity, migration and cancer registrationsecological data: population density, urban/rural indicator and deprivation indicator<br
Census Flow Data, 1991: Migration and Workplace Statistics
Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner.Census flow data involve flows of individuals in the UK between origins and destinations. These flows are either the residential migrations of individuals from one place of usual residence to another, or of commuters making journeys from home to workplace. These data are derived from the questions on the census form relating to usual place of residence one year ago, and the place of work for the respondent's main job. Main Topics:The Web-based Interface to Census Interaction Data (WICID) Flow Data service facilitates access to Census interaction data for members of UK higher and further education institutions. The 1991 datasets currently held include: Census migration datasets: 1991 Census: Special Migration Statistics (Sets 1, including re-estimation for 2001 boundaries, and 2, MIGPOP, SMSGAPS and SAS LBS Table 100 A and B); Migration data at Ward and District level; Ward-level re-estimations for 2001 geographies. Census commuting datasets: 1991 Census: Special Workplace Statistics (Sets A, B and C - including modified set Cs); Commuting data by residence (A), Workplace (B), and within and between wards (C) for 1991 and 2001 boundaries.</ul

2021 Census: Aggregate Data
Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner.A census of population is held every ten years in the UK, in England and Wales it is undertaken by the Office for National Statistics (ONS), in Scotland by the National Records of Scotland (NRS) and in Northern Ireland by the Northern Ireland Statistics and Research Agency (NISRA). In England, Wales and Northern Ireland the latest census was taken on Sunday 21st March 2021. Due to issues around COVID-19, the census in Scotland was held a year later on 28th June 2022. The census asks questions about you, your household and your home. In doing so, it helps to build a detailed snapshot of our society. Information from the census helps the government and local authorities to plan and fund local services, such as education, doctors' surgeries and roads. Topics covered by the data released by the Census agencies include - Demography and migration, UK armed forces veterans, ethnicity, national identity, language, religion, labour market, housing, sexual orientation, gender identity, education, health, disability and unpaid care. The data in this series covers aggregate data at geographies from country level down to Output Area. Due to disclosure control (data can be blurred, changed or withheld to protect anonymity) not all datasets are available at all levels. Main Topics:- Accommodation and Housing- Demography- Health- Identity- Labour Market- Language- Ethnicity- Education- Disability and Unpaid Care- Sexual Orientation- Gender Identity- Religion- Armed Forces</p

2001 Census: Aggregate Data
Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner.The UK censuses took place on 29th April 2001. They were run by the Northern Ireland Statistics & Research Agency (NISRA), General Register Office for Scotland (GROS), and the Office for National Statistics (ONS) for both England and Wales. The UK comprises the countries of England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.Statistics from the UK censuses help paint a picture of the nation and how we live. They provide a detailed snapshot of the population and its characteristics, and underpin funding allocation to provide public services.The aggregate statistics produced as outputs from UK censuses provide information on a wide range of demographic and socio-economic characteristics of the population of the United Kingdom. They are predominantly a collection of aggregated, or summary counts of the numbers of people, families or households resident in specific geographical areas or ‘zones’ possessing particular characteristics, or combinations of characteristics drawn from the themes of population, people and places, families, ethnicity and religion, health, work, and housing. Aggregate statistics are available for the full range of geographies employed within the census, from the smallest (output areas with an average of 150 persons in England and Wales), to national level. For further information about the geographies used in the output of census aggregate statistics, see the section on census geography in the Office for National Statistics’ Beginner’s Guide to UK Geography.

Census 2001: Individual Licenced Sample of Anonymised Records for Imputation Analysis (I-SAR)
Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner.The UK censuses took place on 29th April 2001. They were run by the Northern Ireland Statistics & Research Agency (NISRA), General Register Office for Scotland (GROS), and the Office for National Statistics (ONS) for both England and Wales. The UK comprises the countries of England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.Statistics from the UK censuses help paint a picture of the nation and how we live. They provide a detailed snapshot of the population and its characteristics, and underpin funding allocation to provide public services.The 2001 Individual Licenced Sample of Anonymised Records for Imputation Analysis (I-SAR) is a 3% sample of individuals for all countries of the United Kingdom, with approximately 1.84 million records. The data are available for England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. Information is included for each individual on the main demographic, health, socio-economic and household variables. The 3% sample is an increase by comparison with 2% in 1991. Some variables have been broad-banded to reduce disclosure risk. The lowest level of geography is the Government Office Region (GOR), although Inner and Outer London are separately identified. This represents a significant reduction by comparison with the 1991 where large Local Authorities (population 120,000 and over) were separately identified. This dataset contains 173 variables, including 84 imputation flag variables. The standard version, containing 89 I-SAR variables, is available under SN 7205.

Census 1991: Individual Sample of Anonymised Records for Great Britain (SARs)
Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner.The UK censuses took place on 21st April 1991. They were run by the Census Office for Northern Ireland, General Register Office for Scotland, and the Office of Population and Surveys for both England and Wales. The UK comprises the countries of England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.Statistics from the UK censuses help paint a picture of the nation and how we live. They provide a detailed snapshot of the population and its characteristics, and underpin funding allocation to provide public services.The 1991 Individual Sample of Anonymised Records for Great Britain (SARs) represents a 2% sample of individuals enumerated in households and communal establishments in the 1991 Census. It consists of almost 1.2 million individual records. The SARs were drawn from the fully coded set of census records returned by households and institutions. They therefore omit wholly imputed households and also households that were missed by the Census. In total, 278 geographical areas are identified on the Individual SAR and include all large local authority districts with a population of at least 120,000 in the 1989 mid-year estimates. Smaller local authorities have been grouped together to form areas with populations over 120,000. The Individual SAR was selected from the 10% sample of the 1991 Census from the remaining households after the removal of the Household SAR. This ensured that there were no overlapping cases in the two samples. Individuals in the remaining households were stratified into groups of nine, and two individuals were selected from each group at random. Individuals in communal establishments were stratified into groups of five, and one individual was selected at random from each group. The records were then scrambled to prevent the geographical tracing within a SAR area. In the Individual file there are two potential sources of clustering which arise in the sampling process. First, individuals are clustered into households in the selection of the 1% sample and second, the removal of the household SAR from the 1% sample implies a further clustering into households. Nonetheless, the Individual SAR approximates to a simple random sample. Further information, including guides and other documentation, may be found on the Cathie Marsh Centre for Survey Research Samples of Anonymised Records website.
