19. Level 1 = 'O Grade, Standard Grade, Access 3 Cluster, Intermediate 1 or 2, GCSE, CSE, Senior Certificate or Equivalent; GSVQ Foundation or Intermediate, SVQ Level 1 or 2, SCOTVEC Module, City and Guilds Craft or equivalent; Other school qualifications not already mentioned (including foreign qualifications)'

22. The 2011 Census tends to overestimate the level of those with low or no qualifications compared to the Annual Population Survey and Labour Force Survey. This is due to differences in mode of collection, context, coverage, questions asked and processing.
23. Within this category, less than 1 per cent of people were classed as living in a temporary structure (excluding 'White: Gypsy/Traveller' where the proportion was higher. See chapter 2).
24. Within this category, no more than 2 per cent of people were classed as living rent free.
25. This chart focuses on home ownership - it doesn't show change in the private rented and social rented sectors.

32. 'Pakistani' and 'Indian' groups had a higher proportion of people in households with access to 3 or more cars or vans. It should be noted that people from minority ethnic groups were more likely to live in multi-family households. Therefore there may be more cars/vans per household because there are more families per household for these ethnic groups.
33. This includes both school children and university or college students
34. There are known quality issues around the number of people recorded as studying at home. For more details see http://www.scotlandscensus.gov.uk/variables-classification/transport-place-work-or-study
