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 6,741,930.5

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