UK Population Projection Explorer

Another useful interactive from ONS to unpick the Census 2021 data.

This comes after yesterday's news stories about projections of how fast migration is going to be changing the UK's population over the next decade.


The UK Population projection explorer is a new tool launched yesterday.

Small changes in factors like migration and life expectancy can have a big influence on population projections. This interactive tool enables you to adjust different factors and see the effect they have on what the population may look like in the future and make comparisons with our official projections.


There is a caveat:

The statistics generated by this tool are projections, not predictions. National population projections are not forecasts and do not attempt to predict changes in international migration, births or deaths.
