The past couple of weeks have seen some significant releases of Census 2021 data. The UK Data Service Census team have been hard at work to get the data available on our bulk download taiwan rcs data platform as quickly as possible so that this new data can be accessed by researchers.
With 10 years between each census, it is hard for many to keep track of often small but significant changes that take place in the questions and structure of the census questionnaire. On the Data Impact blog we have previously discussed the changes and continuities in the Census as well as the future of the census.
In the past couple of weeks there have been two separate releases of Census 2021 data which represent some important “firsts” for the census. Whilst much has been written and discussed about the releases, we wanted to highlight these and a new visualisation tool developed by the Office of National Statistics.
