This slide pack looks at the 2021 census data released on November 29th 2022 and covers:

  • Ethnicity - number of residents by ethnic group, and changes from 2011
  • Language - number of residents by main language spoken, and changes from 2011
  • Religion - number of residents by religion (including no religion & no answer)

Tables and maps showing detailed breakdowns & links to the underlying data are provided in the appendix.

All analysis is at the Essex, district, and unitary level. Please not that the currently published data does not allow more detailed breakdowns above what is provided in these slides (we are unable to look at ethnicity by age, for example). This data will be provided in a later census release.
