About the Demographic Information

The information on housing, people, culture, employment and education that is displayed about Harlequin Avenue, Brentford, TW8 9BZ is based on the last census performed in the UK in 2021. They are performed once every 10 years. Our website shows 2021 data for England, Wales and Northern Ireland. For Scotland, 2022 data is shown (the Scottish census was performed a year later than the rest of the UK). Please note: census information may include figures for adjacent streets and postcodes.
