What the data measures

This data measures the size of the population of England and Wales, and the number and percentage of people from each ethnic group.

Read more about the 2021 Census.

Not included in the data

The data does not include households that did not answer the question about ethnicity.

97% of people completed the 2021 Census.

The data has been adjusted to take into account people and households who were not counted or counted incorrectly.

The ethnic groups used in the data

This data uses the standardised list of 19 ethnic groups that were developed for the 2021 Census.

The ethnic groups used in the 2021 Census were slightly different from the 2011 Census ethnic groups.

There were 2 changes in 2021 - the 'Roma' group was added under the 'white' ethnic group, and people could write their own response under the 'black African' ethnic group.

As a result, figures for the white other and black African and black other ethnic groups may not be directly comparable for 2011 and 2021, although the groups concerned account for very low percentages of the overall population.
