Dataset: Population Estimates
Description
The mid-year population estimates relate to the usually resident population on 30 June of each year. Year is a mandatory field within Stat-Xplore, as the population estimate for each year is discrete, ensuring that users cannot sum multiple years.

Classification
Available population estimate data is from 2002 onwards.
