Description

Pie Chart

This dataset provides Census 2021 estimates that classify households in England and Wales by the number of people in the household who have previously served in the UK armed forces. The estimates are as at Census Day, 21 March 2021.

Summary

Number of people in the household 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, 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 Cambridgeshire and Peterborough. They may, therefore, be slightly inaccurate due to administrative boundaries not precisely aligning with census boundaries.
