This report gives information on the latest population estimates available for Norfolk, as issued by the Office for National Statistics on 24 June 2010. The County’s population was an estimated 853,400 in mid-2009, an increase of around 6,100 from the revised estimate for mid-2008. These estimates were made using an improved methodology. The same methodology was used to produce a revised set of 2002 to 2008 estimates, which result in lower figures for the County and some Districts but higher figures in others.

Population estimates from 2002 to 2008 currently published on Norfolk insight will shortly be updated, along with publication of the 2009 estimates.

To view the report click on 'Key Facts' at the top of the page and select 'Population estimates for mid-2009 and revised estimates for mid-2002 to mid-2008' from the 'population' drop down box.

This issue contains the results for Norfolk County and County Districts of the 2008-based sub-national population projections.

The projections were published by the Office for National Statistics Centre for Demography (ONSCD) on 27 May. They use the revised 2008 Mid Year Estimates of population also published in May 2010 as a base, and are consistent with the 2008-based national population projections published in October 2009. Norfolk’s population is projected to rise from 847,300 in 2008 to 963,400 in 2021 and 1,065,700 in 2033. These are demographic trend based projections. They assume that recent trends in fertility, mortality and migration will continue and provide an estimate of future population levels that would result from these trends.

The following data has recently been updated on Norfolk Insight:

Dataset:
- The Active People Survey

Background Information:
The Active People Survey is designed to collect data on sports participation amongst a locally representative sample of adults aged 16 and over living in England. The survey is a telephone survey, which was conducted with a total of 363,724 (Active People Survey 1), 191,325 (Active People Survey 2), and 193,947 (Active People Survey 3) adults in England aged 16 and over.

The survey is conducted using CATI (Computer Aided Telephone Interviewing). Random Digit Dialling (RDD) is used in the selection of the sample with one respondent randomly selected from the eligible household members. The RDD sample is drawn by selecting numbers from a database comprising all exchange codes allocated for residential use in the UK. A representative sample is then drawn by randomising the last four digits of each number.

To ensure representation at a local level, at least 1,000 interviews/500 interviews (Active People Survey 1/Active People Survey 2 and Active People Survey 3, respectively) have been completed in every local authority in England, (except for Birmingham, the Isles of Scilly, the City of London, and for Active People Survey 2 and Active People Survey 3, those local authorities who chose to boost their sample).

The interviewing for Active People takes place over a 12-month period, from October to October (2005/6 for Active People Survey 1, 2007/8 for Active People Survey 2, and 2008/9 for Active People Survey 3). The distribution of interviews is evenly divided amongst all local authorities in England. This approach ensures that interviews are spread evenly throughout the twelve months for each local authority, which helps to account for seasonal variations in sports participation.
