Description

Estimates of London's population between 1801 and 2001 (persons present 1801 to 1991 and residents for 2001 onwards) derived from historic Census data. Sources: years to 1971 - Greater London Council Research [Memorandum 413](https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/londondatastore-upload/Research-Memorandum-413.pdf), The Changing Population of the London Boroughs; 1981 Census Small Area Statistics, Table 1; 1991 Census Small Area Statistics, Table 1. Figure for Year-1939 is a mid-year estimate for the year 1939. Figure for Year-2001 onwards is the number of residents because the number of persons present is not available from 2001. Note that totals for Greater London may not match due to rounding errors. Figures are estimates to the nearest thousand.

Visit Britain publish data relating to international visitors to the UK. They produce the data in two formats - individual spreadsheets for each region that are updated annually, and a single spreadsheet for all regions, containing less detail but updated quarterly. **London data** London data shows totals for nights, visits, and spend. Data broken down by age, purpose, duration, mode and country. This spreadsheet is also available from [Visit Britain](http://www.visitbritain.org/insightsandstatistics/inboundvisitorstatistics/regions/regiontrends.aspx) website. **All Regions data** The latest quarterly data for regions (47MB), shows quarterly data including purpose and country. This spreadsheet is also available from [Visit Britain](http://www.visitbritain.org/insightsandstatistics/inboundvisitorstatistics/latestdata/index.aspx) website. A combination of these two spreadsheets is used to create data used for the Dashboard here. All data taken from the International Passenger Survey (IPS). International tourism accounts for nearly four-fifths of all tourist spending in London. Some additional data on domestic tourism can be found on the [Visit Britain](http://www.visitbritain.org/insightsandstatistics/domesticvisitorstatistics/index.aspx) website, and Visit England both [overnight tourism](http://www.visitengland.org/insight-statistics/major-tourism-surveys/overnightvisitors/) and [Day visits](http://www.visitengland.org/insight-statistics/major-tourism-surveys/dayvisitors/index.aspx) pages. Data on accomodation occupancy levels is also available from [Visit England](http://www.visitengland.org/insight-statistics/major-tourism-surveys/accommodations/Occupancy_Survey/).

This [table](https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/londondatastore-upload/nationality-london.xls) shows resident population of London broken down by nationality, showing data for London's largest communities in 2004, and 2008 to 2012. Also shows the percentage of the UK community that live in London. The Annual Population Survey (APS) sampled around 325,000 people in the UK (around 28,000 in London). As such all figures must be treated with some caution. 95% confidence interval levels are provided. All numbers based on fewer than 50 surveys have been suppressed. Numbers have been rounded to the nearest thousand. The APS is the only inter-censal data source that can provide estimates of the population stock by nationality. The data have a range of limitations, particularly in relation to their poor coverage of short-term migrants or recent arrivals. They also struggle to provide estimates for small migrant populations due to small sample sizes. Information about Londoners by Country of Birth using APS data, can be found in DMAG Briefing 2008-05 http://legacy.london.gov.uk/gla/publications/factsandfigures/dmag-briefing-2008-05.pdf [ONS website](http://www.ons.gov.uk/ons/about-ons/who-we-are/services/unpublished-data/social-survey-data/aps/aps-faqs/index.html)

These profiles help paint a general picture of an area by presenting a range of headline indicator data in both spreadsheet and map form to help show statistics covering demographic, economic, social and environmental datasets for each borough, alongside relevant comparator areas. The full datasets and more information for each of the indicators are usually available on the _London Datastore_. A link to each of the datasets is contained in the spreadsheet and map. [Borough Profiles - Excel](https://londondatastore-upload.s3.amazonaws.com/london-borough-profiles.xls) [](https://londondatastore-upload.s3.amazonaws.com/london-borough-profiles.xls) On opening the spreadsheet a simple drop down box allows you to choose which borough profile you are interested in. Selecting this will display data for that borough, plus either Inner or Outer London, London and a national comparator (usually England where data is available). To see the full set of data for all 33 local authorities in London plus the comparator areas in Excel, click the 'Data' worksheet. A chart and a map are also available to help visualise the data for all boroughs (macros must be enabled for the Excel map to function). The data is set out across 11 themes covering most of the key indicators relating to demographic, economic, social and environmental data. Sources are provided in the spreadsheet. Notes about the indicator are provided in comment boxes attached to the indicator names. **[Profiles using interactive mapping](http://londondatastore-upload.s3.amazonaws.com/instant-atlas/borough-profiles/atlas.html)** For a geographical and bar chart representation of the profile data, open this interactive report. Choose indicators from the left hand side. Click on the comparators to make them appear on the chart and map. Sources, links to data, and notes are all contained in the box in the bottom right hand corner. [](http://londondatastore-upload.s3.amazonaws.com/instant-atlas/borough-profiles/atlas.html) These profiles include data relating to: Population, Households (census), Demographics, Migrant population, Ethnicity, Language, Employment, NEET, Benefits, Qualifications, Earnings, Volunteering, Jobs density, Business Survival, Crime, Fires, House prices, New homes, Tenure, Greenspace, Recycling, Carbon Emissions, Cars, Public Transport Accessibility (PTAL), Indices of Multiple Deprivation, GCSE results, Children looked after, Children in out-of-work families, Life Expectancy, Teenage conceptions, Happiness levels, Political control, and Election turnout. Data is correct as of September 2014. #London Borough Atlas To access even more data at local authority level, use the London Borough Atlas. It contains data about the same topics as the profiles but provides further detailed breakdowns and time-series data for each borough. [](http://londondatastore-upload.s3.amazonaws.com/instant-atlas/borough-atlas/atlas.html) The London boroughs are: City of London, Barking and Dagenham, Barnet, Bexley, Brent, Bromley, Camden, Croydon, Ealing, Enfield, Greenwich, Hackney, Hammersmith and Fulham, Haringey, Harrow, Havering, Hillingdon, Hounslow, Islington, Kensington and Chelsea, Kingston upon Thames, Lambeth, Lewisham, Merton, Newham, Redbridge, Richmond upon Thames, Southwark, Sutton, Tower Hamlets, Waltham Forest, Wandsworth, Westminster.

ONS policy is to publish population estimates rounded to at least the nearest hundred persons. Estimates by single year of age, and the detailed components of change are provided in units to facilitate further calculations. They cannot be guaranteed to be as exact as the level of detail implied by unit figures. Estimates are calculated by single year of age but these figures are less reliable and ONS advise that **they should be aggregated to at least five-year age groupings** for use in further calculations, onwards circulation, or for presentation purposes. (Splitting into 0 year olds and 1-4 year olds is an acceptable exception). ONS mid-year population estimates data by 5 year age groups going all the way back to 1981, are available on the [NOMIS website](https://www.nomisweb.co.uk/query/construct/summary.asp?mode=construct&version=0&dataset=31).

The [Index of Private Housing Rental Prices](https://londondatastore-upload.s3.amazonaws.com/ons-private-rents-region.xls) (IPHRP) is a quarterly experimental price index. It tracks the prices paid for renting property from private landlords in Great Britain. IPHRP is produced from a number of administrative sources and is classified as experimental by ONS. The index compares trends (rather than levels) in average private sector rents across English regions, Wales and Scotland. It uses a complex mix-adjustment and weighting process to produce a single index for each area. This index uses data on actual new and ongoing rents. The sample ensures that the index is representative of the stock at regional level and that it isn't distorted by units dropping out of the sample because they switch to LHA or for other reasons. This is an advantage over the [VOA dataset](/datastore/package/average-private-rents-borough) where the sample is changing over time and may not be representative. Tables show monthly data. Data is updated once a quarter. Index level (January 2011 = 100). Not seasonally adjusted.

GLA Update 13-2014: Poverty in London • The number of Londoners living in poverty has seen little change over the last few years and remains at around 2.2 million people, or 28 per cent of all those living in the region, averaged over three years 2010/11-2012/13. • Around 300,000 children in Inner London are living in poverty, with a further 400,000 in Outer London. The Inner London child poverty rate remains significantly higher than for any other region, at 45 per cent. • Inner London also stands out as having exceptionally high rates of material deprivation among pensioners – more than double the rate for any other region with almost one in four unable to have or take part in the social norms for that population group for reasons of poverty, health or isolation.

[Numbers of fires, and other incidents,](https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/londondatastore-upload/lfb-incidents-month-borough.xls) attended by the London Fire Brigade by borough and month. London Fire Brigade (LFB) data covering all deliberate fires, primary fires in dwellings, and non-dwellings, shut in lift releases as well as many more sets. Data broken down by month since January 2009. Primary fires comprise of all fires attended by the FRS in buildings, vehicles and outdoor structures, and fires involving casualties, and fires attended by 5 or more appliances. Counts of primary fires for each area are provided by location (i.e. dwelling, other building, road vehicle, or other outdoors), and whether the cause was identified as accidental or deliberate. This information will help users to identify areas most at risk from having a fire, and those areas where people are most likely to fall victim to a deliberate fire attack, or be injured by fire. The statistics include fires which could not be geo-referenced accurately as a remainder. Often these cases are geo-coded later, and so the data can change each month, and therefore data is provisional. This data about the incidents attended by the London Fire Brigade includes the fire station area where the incident happened; the fire station area is currently used for mobilising and other administrative purposes. On 9 January 2014, ten London fire stations were closed as part of the Authority’s Fifth London Safety Plan (LSP5), and fire station areas were changed to reflect these closures with the station areas of closed stations being distributed to adjacent fire station areas. To provide consistent incident data, stations grounds have been changed for all incidents in this data set and reflect the station areas in use from 9 January 2014.

Data shows the number of businesses (local units such as a factory or a shop) by Broad Industry Groups. Analyses are provided for VAT and/or PAYE based enterprises and local units. Where an enterprise has several local units, the location of the enterprise is generally the main operating site or the head office. The SIC groupings changed in 2009 when SIC2007 was used for the first time. Since 2008 the publication has been enhanced to include enterprises based on PAYE employers that are not also registered for VAT, extending the scope from the previous VAT based enterprise publication. This is a major change to the scope of the publication. The increase in units is most noticeable in the VAT-exempt industries of finance (J), education (M), health (N) and public administration (L, O and Q). Analysis is provided for VAT and/or PAYE based enterprises and local units. Where an enterprise has several local units, the location of the enterprise is generally the main operating site or the head office. This data is available on the [ONS website](http://www.ons.gov.uk/ons/rel/bus-register/uk-business/index.html). Data is an extract compiled from the Inter Departmental Business Register (IDBR) recording the number of local units that were live at a reference date in March.
