Census Maps Reveal Identity Enclaves

Local mapping of the 2021 census 'non‑UK identity' response shows concentrated neighbourhood clusters outside London — Leicester and Oldham are given as examples where a large share of residents prefer non‑UK identities. The maps turn an abstract national debate into visible, place‑based patterns that can be linked to integration policy and local governance challenges. — Making these census‑derived identity clusters visible reframes immigration and integration from abstract totals to local spatial politics, with implications for service planning, policing, electoral strategy, and social cohesion.
