The ONS doesn't publish census data directly for Combined Authorities. The figures on this page are aggregated
from census areas contained within West Midlands. 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 aged 16 years and over in households in England and Wales by their living arrangements. The estimates are as at Census Day, 21 March 2021.
Summary
The “living arrangements” classification combines responses to the question on marital and civil partnership status with information about whether or not a person is living in a couple. This topic is only applicable to people in households. Living arrangements differs from marital and civil partnership status because cohabiting takes priority over other categories. For example, if a person is divorced and cohabiting, then in results for living arrangements they are classified as cohabiting.
