| Annotation | 'People and places: a 21st century atlas of the UK' is an atlas which uses population cartograms to show how the country's social geography is changing. Data from its main source, the 2011 Census, is compared with those in the 2001 Census, and with more recent data on trends published up to and including 2015. An introduction looks at developments in computer and Census mapping, and maps of the UK's regions and districts, and on aspects of the population in general. The sections that follow present maps, charts and commentaries around seven themes: sex, age and marriage; religion and ethnicity; birthplace and nationality; qualifications and employment; occupation and industry; families, caring and health; and homes and community. An appendix provides tables which rank local authority districts by wealth and poverty of households. As with the two previous publications (A new social atlas of Britain, 1995; and People and places: a 2001 Census atlas of the UK, 2004), this atlas of national and trends provides analysis of their implications for future policy.
