This dataset is about Usual Resident Population. It shows all people in England and Wales. In the 2001 Census information was collected for usual residents. A usual resident was generally defined as someone who spent most of their time at a specific address. This dataset shows both the 2001 population, the 1991 population, along with the rate of change, the split of the population between those living in households and those living in communal establishments, the size of the area in hectares, population density and the number of students away from home in the area

About the variables
Usual resident Population (8 categories)
Care must be taken when interpreting intercensal population change, as there have been changes in definition between 1991 and 2001, and the 2001 counts have been adjusted to account for under-enumeration.
Area measurements are based on the 2001 version of the OS Boundary-Line data-set, amended where boundaries have changed since 2001, and do not include inland water.
'Number of students away from home' is the number of students and schoolchildren in full-time education who would reside in the area were they not living away from home in term-time. Data for the number of students away from home was not available from the 1991 Census.
