On this page, you will find the Cornish results from the Census undertaken in 2021.
The census happens every 10 years and gives us a picture of all the people and households in England and Wales. In Scotland and Northern Ireland, they undertake their own version of the census – that we can use to compare to local figures. To find out more about why the census is undertaken, take a look at the ONS Census history website.
The last census took place in 2011, so this release gives us an incredibly up to date view of what Cornwall looks like!
Past 2011 at a glance Cornwall Census data and 2011 Census overview of headline figures are available for reference.
ONS have released a custom area profile which includes Parish and Ward geographies.
