Counts and percentages of people by ethnic group, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, and disabled and non-disabled people.

On 5 September 2024, Emma Rourke, Deputy National Statistician, wrote to Ed Humpherson (Office for National Statistics (ONS)), Head of the Office for Statistics Regulation (OSR), to request that the gender identity estimates from Census 2021 are no longer accredited official statistics and are classified as official statistics in development. The change in designation was confirmed by OSR on 12 September 2024. To reflect this change in designation, the accredited official statistics logo has been removed from this release.

Data has been published on StatsWales.

The ONS have completed further quality work to provide more detailed information on the uncertainty associated with the Census 2021 gender identity estimates and guidance on their appropriate use. Please see their Census 2021 gender identity estimates for England and Wales, additional guidance on uncertainty and appropriate use article (ONS) published on 26 March. We are reviewing this statistical bulletin using the ONS guidance and may add further information on appropriate uses of the data.
