The ONS doesn't publish census data directly for Built Up Areas. The figures on this page are aggregated from output areas overlapping Porthtowan. Age-standardised statistics and population density are not available for aggregated datasets.

Porthtowan is particularly disjoint from its associated output areas, so the aggregate values are likely to be very imprecise.

This dataset provides Census 2021 estimates that classify occupied household spaces in England and Wales by the type of central heating present. The estimates are as at Census Day, 21 March 2021.

Summary

Central heating is a heating system used to heat multiple rooms in a building by circulating air or heated water through pipes to radiators or vents. Single or multiple fuel sources can fuel these systems.

Central heating systems that are unused or not working are still considered. No information is available for household spaces with no usual residents.
