The ONS doesn't publish census data directly for Metropolitan Counties. The figures on this page are aggregated
from census areas contained within Merseyside. They may not, therefore, be precisely accurate. Age-standardised
statistics and population density are not available for aggregated datasets.
This dataset provides Census 2021 estimates that classify usual residents in England and Wales by ethnic group. The estimates are as at Census Day, 21 March 2021.

They may, therefore, be slightly inaccurate due to administrative boundaries not precisely aligning with census boundaries.
