This dataset provides Census 2021 estimates that classify usual residents in Wales by their overall Welsh language skills. The estimates are as at Census Day, 21 March 2021.

Summary

Whether a person has Welsh language skills. If they do, can they do any of the following:

* understand spoken Welsh
* speak Welsh
* read Welsh
* write Welsh
* no skills in Welsh

The census questionnaire only asked this question to people in Wales.

In results that classify people by Welsh language skills, a person may appear in more than one category depending on which combination of skills they have.

Welsh language skills: Total: All usual residents aged 3 years and over	4,558
Can understand spoken Welsh only	185
Can speak, read and write Welsh	331
Can speak but cannot read or write Welsh	80
Can speak and read but cannot write Welsh	36
Can read but cannot speak or write Welsh	60
Can write but cannot speak or read Welsh	11
Can read and write but cannot speak Welsh	14
Can speak and other combinations of skills in Welsh	8
No skills in Welsh	3,833

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