You'll also find insights into age groups and household compositions, revealing generational trends and living arrangements. This data and analysis gives you a great insight into the tapestry of life in SG10 6DH.
Population Density
Census 2021 dataset "TS002 - Population Density" provides a detailed look at how people are distributed across an area, measured as the number of residents per square kilometre. This is a key indicator that helps us understand how crowded or spacious a location feels. Higher density often suggests urban areas with compact housing and busy communities, whereas lower density points to rural or semi-rural locations with open space and/or countryside and fewer neighbours.
