2021 Census Information Released for England and Wales

UPDATE: SINCE THIS POST, 2021 DATA FOR NORTHERN IRELAND HAS ALSO BEEN RELEASED.

StreetCheck are pleased to announce that from today, users viewing data about postcodes in England and Wales can now see charts and analysis based on the 2021 census.

Previously this website used 2011 census data, and since the government released the 2021 census data in the summer of 2023 we have been working hard to analyse and import that data.

As well as updating the existing data, we have added some new data, including adding information on household deprivation and disability.

For Welsh postcodes, data on Welsh language understanding has been added to the already existing data on Welsh speaking.

Users looking for information on Northern Ireland will also be pleased to hear that 2021 census data is now also being worked on for those "BT" postcodes, and we are hoping to release that very soon. As the census is a devolved matter, our team needs a little more time to work on analysing the data and the slightly different format of questions that were used in the Northern Irish census paper.

UPDATE: SINCE THIS POST, 2021 DATA FOR NORTHERN IRELAND HAS ALSO BEEN RELEASED.

Users looking for Scottish information will unfortunately have to wait a little longer - as the Scottish government chose to delay their census until 2022, the data is not expected to reach us until sometime in the summer of 2024.

We hope that you find the updated information useful.

Thank you,

The StreetCheck team.
