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 in England and Wales by whether or not they have previously served in the UK armed forces. The estimates are as at Census Day, 21 March 2021.
Summary
Identifies people who have previously served in the UK armed forces. This includes those who have served for at least one day in armed forces, either regular or reserves, or Merchant Mariners who have seen duty on legally defined military operations.
Quality Statement
Many who have previously served in the UK armed forces will be older males because of National Service. We applied extra quality assurance to correct some answers from currently serving personnel.

These values are calculated by adding up the values for census output areas contained within West Midlands.
They may, therefore, be slightly inaccurate due to administrative boundaries not precisely aligning with census boundaries.
