The census is a once-in-a-decade survey run by the Office for National Statistics that gives us the most accurate estimate of all the people and households in England and Wales. Census results help decide how services are planned and funded in your local area. This could mean things like doctors’ surgeries, housing or new bus routes. Statistics from the census reflect you and your household to build a picture of all of us. They show who we are and how we live. There’s no other survey that gives as much information about our society and future needs. #Census2021 results are available now.
