Local authority ageing statistics, projected sex ratios for older people

Projected indicators included are derived from the published 2018-based subnational population projections for England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland up to the year 2043. The indicators are the projected sex ratio for those aged 65 years and over and the projected sex ratio for those aged 85 years and over. A sex ratio shows the number of males in the population for every 100 females.

This dataset has been produced by the Ageing Analysis Team for inclusion in the subnational ageing tool, which was published on July 20, 2020 (see link in Related datasets). The tool is interactive, and users can compare latest and projected measures of ageing for up to four different areas through selection on a map or from a drop-down menu.

Note on data sources: England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland independently publish subnational population projections and the data available here are a compilation of these datasets. The ONS publish national level data for the UK, England, Wales and England & Wales, which has been included. National level data for Scotland and Northern Ireland have been taken from their subnational population projections datasets.

本数据集包含的预测指标源于英格兰、威尔士、苏格兰和北爱尔兰2018年基于下级地区的人口预测，预测范围涵盖至2043年。这些指标包括65岁及以上人群的预测性别比以及85岁及以上人群的预测性别比。性别比体现了每100名女性中男性的数量。该数据集由老龄化分析团队制作，旨在纳入下级地区老龄化工具中，该工具于2020年7月20日发布（详见相关数据集链接）。该工具具有交互性，用户可通过地图选择或下拉菜单选择最多四个不同地区的最新和预测老龄化指标进行比较。关于数据来源的说明：英格兰、威尔士、苏格兰和北爱尔兰分别独立发布下级地区人口预测，此处提供的数据为这些数据集的汇编。英国国家统计局（ONS）发布了全国及英格兰、威尔士和英格兰及威尔士的国家层面数据，已包含在内。苏格兰和北爱尔兰的国家层面数据取自其下级地区人口预测数据集。
