2021 Census

2021 Census

The 2021 Census results have started to be released by the Office of National Statistics, with more to follow. The Office for National Statistics will publish a series of data releases starting from late 2023, as well as supporting commentary grouped by a similar theme, known as topic summaries. More information about the 2021 Census is available here.

For each release, the Population Insight team has produced summaries of results focused on Surrey. The raw data has also been made available on Surrey-i.

The results will continue to be posted here when made available.

The Office for National Statistics have produced an interactive map which can be used to view the 2021 Census results for defined geographical places. Results can be viewed for Districts & Boroughs, down to small areas such as Output Areas (when available).
