Notes:

  • The Office of National Statistics (ONS) subdivide built-up areas into sectors which do not respect administrative or political boundaries. If those areas have a strong city/town/village identity, for population purposes they are classed into a distinct area.
  • Leicester in particular will include population counts from suburbs which are not within the city boundaries – but are close enough to be counted together.
  • * – District HQ location.
  • † – Civil parish population figure.
