Please note that these figures do not reflect the latest available estimates of the population for mid-2023 and mid-2024. The latest estimates, based on 2022 data zones, can be found here.
These figures were first published in February 2026 and were consistent with the Scotland and council level population estimates for mid-2023 and mid-2024 that were available at that time. The mid-2023 and mid-2024 population estimates for Scotland and its administrative areas have since been revised to reflect the latest estimates of international migration. However, the small area population estimates found below have not been revised and there are currently no plans to revise them.
Small area population estimates that are consistent with the latest mid-2023 and mid-2024 population estimates, and which are based on the more recent 2022 data zones, can be found here. More information on the revisions to population estimates can be found here.
These tables provide small area population estimates (SAPE) for mid-2023 and mid-2024 based on 2011 data zones. Comparable figures for mid-2011 to mid-2021 can be found in the rebased small area population estimates for 2011 to 2021 (2011 data zones) publication while figures for mid-2022 are available from the small area population estimates: mid-2022 publication.
