How this ranking is made

Share of usual residents: people in the group ÷ all usual residents × 100.. Usual residents by the five high-level ethnic groups of the Census of England and Wales (TS021 aggregated by ONS), 2021 and 2011.

Source: ONS: ons_census · Census 2021. Boundaries: 2025-05 BGC v2 LAD_MAY_2025_UK_BGC_V2. Percentiles are calculated across the whole UK, so they do not change when the table is filtered to one nation. A ranking compares areas of very different sizes and populations; the figure is the publisher’s own, and its rank is Civometry’s ordering of those published figures.

Redbridge has the highest share of usual residents of 296 England local authorities with a published figure, at 47.3% (Census 2021 (21 March 2021)). Source: ONS: ons_census.
