About this data

Source: ONS, Population estimates for the UK, mid-2025 (via Nomis)

• Local authorities as they were in April 2023; earlier years' estimates are given for today's areas.
• The City of London's population roughly doubled, from about 7,700 to 15,600, as new homes were built; with so few residents, its growth rate is not comparable with other areas.
• Population estimates are for the middle of each year (30 June), and count people who usually live in the UK.
