Mid-year population estimates by age and sex for years prior to 2001, where higher geographies are aggregated from 2001 Data Zones.
Data zones are the small area geography used by Scottish Government to allow statistics to be available across a number of policy areas. The data zone geography covers the whole of Scotland. Data zones were initially set up to nest within council area boundaries and to have populations of between 500 and 1,000 household residents. As much as possible, data zones were set up to contain households with similar social characteristics and to take into consideration physical boundaries. More information on data zone geography can be found on the Scottish Government website.
Intermediate zones are built up from data zones. Intermediate zones are the statistical small geographical areas designed to contain between 2,500 and 6,000 household residents. More information on intermediate geography can be found on the Scottish Government website.
This is a linked data resource: it has a permanent unique uri at which both humans and machines can find it on the Internet, and which can be used an identifier in queries on our SPARQL endpoint.
