![]() Some Celtic languages, namely Scottish Gaelic and Irish, are still spoken by minorities in Scotland and Northern Ireland, respectively, and Cornish has been revived to a limited degree in Cornwall but the predominant language in all these areas is English. The main language of the country is British English. The second and third largest non-white racial groups are Asian British at 7% of the population, followed by Black British people at 3%. The United Kingdom's population is predominantly White British (81.88% at the 2011 Census), but due to migration from Commonwealth nations, Britain has become ethnically diverse. In England, 16-17 year olds should remain in education, employment or training (for example, in the form of A-Levels, vocational training, and apprenticeships), until the age of 18. ![]() Parents are obliged to have their children educated from the ages of 5 to 16 years. The United Kingdom's high literacy rate (99% at age 15 and above) is attributable to universal state education, introduced at the primary level in 1870 ( Scotland 1872, free 1890 ) and at the secondary level in 1900. This growth through 'natural change' has been accompanied in the past two decades by growth through net immigration into the United Kingdom, which since 1999 has exceeded natural change. The population of the UK has undergone demographic transition-that is, the transition from a (typically) pre-industrial population, with high birth and mortality rates and slow population growth, through a stage of falling mortality and faster rates of population growth, to a stage of low birth and mortality rates with, again, lower rates of growth. Almost a third of the population lives in south east England, which is predominantly urban and suburban, with about 9 million in the capital city, London, whose population density is just over 5,200 per square kilometre (13,468 per sq mi). It is the 21st most populated country in the world and has a population density of 270 people per square kilometre (700 people/sq mi), with England having significantly greater density than Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland. The population of the United Kingdom was estimated at over 67.0 million in 2020. Under this animated map is a series of static maps looking more closely at the differences in the urban, city and rural populations in the USA.3.59 migrant(s)/1,000 population (2022 est.)Īsian British: (6.3%) Black British: (3.0%) British Mixed: (2.0%) Other: (0.9%) The map visualizes how the populations of American cities have grown (and shrunk) over time. In Urban Nation: The Rise of the American City an animated map shows the historic population of America's cities since 1790. Beneath the animated map a number of static maps visualize specific major migrations, showing how different parts of the United States were settled. The map shows how the population of the country spread westwards as the United States was settled.The map uses data of historic county populations from each census from 1790 to 2010. The US Population Over Time is an animated map showing the population in counties over time since 1790. The data for the map comes from the 2010 census. The map also allows you to view a more refined picture of population density in individual cities by visualizing 2,000 of the largest cities at the individual block level. ![]() ![]() On this map each county's height is proportional to the number of people per square mile. These maps visualize the population density of the United States today and how the population center of the country has shifted during its short history.ģD Population Density of the US is an interactive map which shows the population density of every U.S. has created a series of interactive maps to explore the population of the United States and how that population has changed over time. ![]()
