Phase two - Combinations of Census 2021 data : Pre-built datasets

"Create a custom dataset" allows you to add or remove variables and change geographies to build a dataset. Where there is a risk the dataset might identify someone, this will return no data.

We do not publish data that allows you to be able to identify individuals.

Pre-built datasets make it as easy as possible for you to get the data you want while protecting confidentiality. The pre-built datasets we release will cover a range of topics, including:

  • demography and migration
  • UK armed forces veterans
  • ethnic group, national identity, language and religion
  • Welsh language skills
  • labour market and travel to work
  • housing
  • sexual orientation and gender identity
  • education
  • health, disability and unpaid care

Simply select a pre-built dataset, then choose the specific area you'd like to view data for.
