This table provides 2011 Census estimates that classify the usual resident population on census day (27 March 2011) by country of birth. The country of birth classification used in this table is an expanded 215 category classification that provides more detail than Quick Statistics table QS203. The table contains data for regions in England and for Wales.

In order to protect against disclosure of personal information from the 2011 Census, there has been swapping of records in the Census database between different geographic areas, and so some counts will be affected. In the main, the greatest effects will be at the lowest geographies, since the record swapping is targeted towards those households with unusual characteristics in small areas.

More details on the ONS Census disclosure control strategy may be found on the Statistical Disclosure Control page on the ONS web site.
