2001 Census
At the time the 2001 Census was the most comprehensive survey of the UK population. It was carried out on Sunday 29 April 2001. (For more up-to-date population estimates see the Registrar General's Mid Year Population estimates in the Population Estimates section of the Observatory).

Results are available in several different sets of tables (available at a variety of geographic levels):
- Key Statistics Tables give the headline results for the main census variables. There are also a separate set of profiles for Parishes.
- Standard Tables give more detailed results comparing two or more variables, but are only available at Ward level or above.
- Census Area Statistics Tables also give results comparing two or more variables, but are less detailed as they are available down to Output Area level. Included in the Census Area Statistics tables are the Univariate Tables which provide less detailed tables on a broad range of subjects.
- Origin-Destination Matrices give results for Travel to work and migration results comparing information on where people live and where they work or where they live one year prior to census day.
- Parish Profiles give summary results at Parish level. More detailed information on Parishes is available in the Key Statistics.
Many tables of 2001 Census results have been published on hertsdirect.org. To help find the results you need, the results have been categorised by the topic of the table. To search using this categorisation, select the link entitled Find 2001 Census results by topic (on the right hand side of the screen).

The National Statistics 2001 Area Classification uses data from the 2001 Census to group geographic areas into groups of similarity based on their census attributes. More information is available below.
