How data are displayed in Tables
In this publication, all levels are rounded to the nearest hundred (excluding Figure 1). Proportions are calculated on un-rounded figures and are rounded to the first decimal place. Totals may not equal the sum of individual components due to rounding. All results are based on the area of residence unless otherwise stated.
* indicates data are suppressed as estimates are below the reliability threshold.
