Facts and figures
The council and its partners use information about the district and the region to help assess local needs, plan services and monitor success. The council also receives many enquiries from businesses and individuals requesting information and statistics about the local area. These pages contain the most frequently requested facts and figures, as well as links to other websites which can provide useful information.
We have produced a document called ‘Huntingdonshire Today’, which is a review and analysis of statistics about the district. The document uses data collated from a variety of sources, particularly the latest Census and partner organisations, to produce an economic and social profile of Huntingdonshire. A copy is available on the right, where it has been split into sections for faster downloading.
Please note that proposals from a review of parish boundaries and electoral arrangements came into effect from April 2010 and this has led to changes to a small number of ward boundaries which are not reflected in this document. For further information on the review and its impact on ward boundaries please see the link on the right.
The 2001 Census, linked on the left, provides recent information from all households within the district with details down to parish levels.
The ONS Neighbourhood Statistics website contains a wealth of information on large and small areas, including 2001 Census data and Home Office crime figures.
Cambridgeshire County Council's Research Group produces reports on economic and demographic topics and carries out surveys. Their population and dwelling stock estimates can be accessed from our Area Population Statistics page on the left and their webpages and district reports can be viewed using the link on the right.
The Joint Strategic Needs Assessments (JSNAs) for Cambridgeshire contain information on all aspects of health, including the demography of the Cambridgeshire population, the leading causes of ill-health and inequalities locally, deprivation, plus information or links to information regarding the wider determinants of health, such as employment, education and housing. It also highlights where there are gaps in our knowledge, or gaps in our services and is designed to help inform decision making about health. To view the Assessments and supporting data visit the JSNA website linked on the right.
