Method and limitations

Method and limitations

No missing value is imputed. Classification breaks and colours come from the catalogue, and source-declared suppression remains missing.

The area mean gives every published geographic area equal weight. It is not weighted by population, exposure or area size.

Census 2021 is a snapshot on 1 January 2021, not an annual flow.
