Small Area Population Estimates

The most recently published population estimates relate to mid-2008 and are available for Northern Ireland as a whole, and by Local Government District (LGD) and Parliamentary Constituency (PC). For smaller geographical units the estimation process becomes more complex, particularly in relation to migration.

NISRA has undertaken a review of the methodology and data sources with regards to small area population estimates and have recently produced data for the period 2001 to 2008. Small area population estimates have been produced for Super Output Areas, Census Output Areas, Electoral Wards, Neighbourhood Renewal Areas and Settlements. Where possible a breakdown by sex and broad age group has been provided while other data files contain population totals only.

A report on small area population estimates is also available here.

A copy of the PowerPoint presentation held at the NISRA seminar (30 June 2010) is available here.

Interactive maps are also available at SOA level.
