@BylinesEast That is very bad news! Why are people in #Norfolk so exercised about #immigration, when there are so few #immigrants living in the #county? 93.4% of the Norfolk #population were born in #England, according to the last #census, 1.2% in #Scotland & 0.8% in #Wales (https://www.ons.gov.uk/visualisations/censusareachanges/E07000147/), so that's 95.4% born in #Britain.

Census completed. We got the long form. Did not expect that. Being of advanced age and ill health, this is probably the last one I will ever do. Hopefully my great-great grandchildren will appreciate my efforts when they study the 'old' 2026 census.

The 1926 Irish Census
An interesting little booklet arrived in the post yesterday. It gives an overview of the 1926 census, which has just been made available online. This was the first census to be taken after the end of the War of Independence and the creation of the Irish Free State.
The census was taken on April 18th 1926 (i.e. 100 years ago yesterday) and the total population recorded was just 2,971, 992 a drop of 168,000 compared to the 1911 census (for the same 26 counties; this being after partition, the six counties of Northern Ireland are not included). The current population is around 5.3 million.
This is a full release of the census: not only names and numbers but also complete digital scans of all the returns can be downloaded. It’s fascinating to see the actually hand-written forms.
Out of curiosity I searched for the surname “Coles” in the 1926 census using the online platform and found only 25 entries, most of them in Wexford but also a small cluster in County Cork (in Cobh, actually). I know that “Coles” is not a common name in Ireland – it’s associated with England and Wales – but I hadn’t expected so few. There are a couple of entries in Dublin: one refers to a 32-year old woman called “Alfa Coles”. The latter record is completed in Irish – most of the others are in Irish.
Some years ago I found that there is a Coles Coat of Arms and subsequently found that in Burkes General Armory (which details all the Coats of Arms registered in the UK and Ireland) the first entry under the surname Coles is indeed in Ireland, where it was confirmed in 1647. That date is during the Irish Confederate Wars, a couple of years before Oliver Cromwell arrived in Ireland with his army. One might surmise that this particular branch of the Coles lineage was somehow caught up in these hostilities, probably on the English side.
Anyway, as well as being a goldmine for historians, those of you out there with Irish lineage will no doubt find it interesting to search the 1926 census to find the records pertaining to your ancestors.
The next census of Ireland takes place on 9th May 2027.

80 million people globally claim Irish ancestry – why the release of 1926 Irish census records is so momentus.
One hundred years after it was conducted, the first full census of independent Ireland is being released for free online.
These nearly 3 million records will be of great significance to Ireland’s population, and a global diaspora of some 80 million claiming Irish ancestry.

Well this one certainly sneaked past me back in June;
"Statistics Minister Shane Reti announced ... that the Census - which has existed in a similar format for more than 70 years - will be replaced with a combination of administrative data from other government agencies and smaller annual surveys that a sample of the population will complete.
There will be no 2028 Census."

This sounds dystopian - tens of millions will be excluded, and will have to run from pillar to post.
With Special Intensive Revisions of the electoral rolls, and now with this digital census, citizenship of India and other rights have become alms thrown to the Indian people by the government. And these are alms that can be taken away for various reasons, these are alms one has to keep begging for periodically.
Government Says Census 2027 Will Be Conducted 'Digitally'
Junior home minister Nityanand Rai said that the government has planned "to collect data through Mobile Apps."

#Republican plan would make #deanonymization of #census data trivial
But now, a little-known #algorithmic process called “differential privacy,” created to keep census data from being used to identify individual respondents, has become the right’s latest focus. WIRED spoke to six experts about the #GOP ’s ongoing effort to falsely allege that a system created to protect people’s #privacy has made the data from the 2020 census inaccurate.

Republicans want to ban differential privacy in the Census, citing data distortion. But removing it could expose personal info, risking privacy for millions. It’s a battle over how we protect data in the age of AI.

As the Office of National Statistics struggles to regain confidence in its statistical work, a recent report suggests the next census needs a better model for assessing a range of gender gaps in its data.
Specifically this should enable the ONS to get better information on how un-paid care is patterned (given most, but not all, is delivered by women). There's also a need for more fine-grained analysis of occupations to capture gender disparities.

When I try to get 2023 ACS data (or really any other recent data) from the US Census web site I get:
" Due to the lapse of federal funding, portions of this website will not be updated. Any inquiries submitted will not be answered until appropriations are enacted.
You will be redirected in 10 seconds..."
This is going about as I expected.
