Description
Data
Bar Chart
Pie Chart

This dataset provides Census 2021 estimates that classify usual residents in England and Wales by population density (number of usual residents per square kilometre). The estimates are as at Census Day, 21 March 2021.

Population Density: Persons per square kilometre	18,488,139.8

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

Bar chart not showing properly? Data with large numbers of options really needs a wider screen. Try rotating your fondleslab into landscape mode and refreshing the page.
