| Description | This project has illustrated how neighbourhoods of England and Wales changed in terms of ethnic diversity over the 1990s, demonstrating how migration within Britain and natural change (people being born and dying) affect the make-up of local populations. |
| Exploitation Route | The methods developed offer an approach to monitor local population change in terms of ethnicity which can be crucial for service planning and cohesion policies. |
| Sectors | Communities and Social Services/Policy,Education,Government, Democracy and Justice |
| Description | The findings have influenced academic and policy debate about ethnic integation in neighbourhoods. The demographic methods have been employed by local authorities in the UK. |

| Title | Ethnic group components of demographic change : births, deaths and net migration for wards and local authorities of Great Britain, 1991-2001 |
| Description | This study provides estimates of births, deaths and net-migration, by ethnic group, for each electoral ward (England and Wales) and local authority area (England, Wales and Scotland), for the period July 1st, 1991 -June 30th, 2001. The study uses the eight-category classification of ethnic group: White, Caribbean, African, Indian, Pakistani, Bangladeshi and Other. Ethnic group is not included in civil registration of births and deaths in the UK. These estimates are based on estimates of fertility of each ethnic group in each locality, based on local child/woman ratios, common schedules of mortality, and estimates of ethnic group population consistent with the latest estimates of mid-year population for 1991 and 2001 by the Office for National Statistics (ONS) and the General Register Office. Net migration is estimated indirectly as the residual after births and deaths are deducted from population change during the period 1991-2001, using standard methods of applied demography described in Simpson, Finney and Lomax (2008). There are no other estimates of demographic components of change for this period. The eight ethnic group categories are known to be more stable between the two censuses of 1991 and 2001 than other possible classifications that amalgamate the 10 ethnic group categories of 1991 with the 16 ethnic group categories of 2001. The least stable categories across this time are Caribbean, African, and Other.
