2.0 National Demographic Changes in Ethnic Population 2001 to 2011
The 2011 Census has revealed that the UK is in the midst of a very significant period of
demographic shift. These demographic changes are reflected by many of its international
peers and are widely accepted as resulting in part from globalisation.
A recent contributor to the rate of globalisation has been the accession of 12 countries in
central and Eastern Europe to the EU. Accession gives the populous of these countries the
right to live and work in the UK, for example; the population of Poles in England and Wales
has grown nine-fold between 2001 and 2011.
Apart from Poland, the other leading countries of origin for British immigrants were India,
Pakistan, Ireland and Germany. The largest increase in an ethnic group over the last decade
occurred in the 'White: Other' category where an increase of 1.1 million was recorded. This
reflects more than half a million Poles who migrated to England and Wales during this time.
Ten years ago when the last census was conducted, there were some 4.3 million people, in
the UK who identified that they had been born outside of the UK. By the 2011 census, there
were 7.5 million people born abroad living in England and Wales, this is an increase of
almost three million and increases their proportion of the population to 13%.
The 2011 Census employed three measures to try and better understand migration: it asked
when people came to the UK, where they were born and what passport they held. The
Census also attempted to establish who was a long-term migrant and who was in the UK
temporarily.
In 2011, 13% of the residents of England and Wales - (7.5 million out of a total population of
56.1 million) were born outside the UK.
While all English regions and Wales experienced increases in foreign-born residents between
2001 and 2011, the largest numerical rises were in London and the South East of England.
The 10 local authorities with the highest proportion of foreign-born residents in 2011 were all
London boroughs. London had three million foreign-born residents in 2011, 37% of its total
population of 8.2 million.
The lowest percentage change was found in the North East of England in 2011, where just
5% of residents were foreign-born.
Of the 7.5 million foreign-born residents in England and Wales in 2011, more than half (3.8
million) arrived in the last 10 years.

2.1 Natural Change in Ethnic Populations
As well as ethnic populations changing due to migration, there is also the significant influence
of natural change, which, varies significantly from one ethnic group to another.
Nationally, all non-White ethnic groups in England and Wales have grown in size since 2001
through a higher rate of births than deaths. Some have also grown through net migration into
England and Wales.
For the majority of ethnic groups whose first wave of immigration to the UK was over a
generation ago, growth through further immigration is lower than their ‘natural’ growth within
England and Wales through an excess of births over deaths.
Pakistani and Bangladeshi groups have each grown by about 50% during 2001-2011, and
mostly because more people have been born than have died.
For the Caribbean group, whose main immigration to the UK was now sixty years ago,
growth has been less than 5%, this was almost entirely due to the excess of births over
deaths rather than further immigration.
The Indian group is an exception among established ethnic minority groups: it has grown
through immigration during the period 2001-2011 more than through an excess of births over
deaths.
In the last decade, the ‘Other White’ (including most Eastern Europeans), African and
Chinese ethnic groups added rapidly to their population from further immigration as well as
from natural growth. Each grew between 70% and 100% in total during the decade.
The ‘Mixed’ groups have a very young age structure. Their growth was mainly due to children
born in the decade. A smaller but significant growth of about 25% was through immigration.
The Irish group in England and Wales reduced by 18% over the decade, both from an excess
of deaths over births and from net emigration. It is a relatively elderly population in England
and Wales, although immigrants in their twenties continue to arrive.
Fertility of most groups has increased a little in the 2000s, but overall there is less difference
in family size between ethnic groups than in past decades.
3.0 Change in Derby’s Ethnic Population
The 2011 census identified that 13.8% of people in Derby were born abroad and 7.1% of the
population had been resident for less than 10 years.
The latter is one of the key contributory factors to the significant changes in Derby’s ethnic
population between 2001 and 2011 – (Intercensal period).
In Derby, all but the Irish and Caribbean populations have increased in the intercensal period;
however, many of those that have increased have done so by small increments. The ‘white
other’ population shows the most significant growth with 2.20% and the Pakistani and African
populations show the second and third highest increases with 1.90% and 1.10% respectively.
3
The Caribbean population in Derby shows no increase in population since 2001. The Office
of National Statistics identified that the Caribbean population in Derby was comparatively
small in 2001 and subsequent statistical releases show this population changing at a
significantly slower rate than other ethnic groups. This is partly due to the fact that since the
1960’s the rate of migration from the Caribbean has been very small and the birth rate has
significantly slowed.
The Irish population in Derby has been in decline for the past decade and possibly
significantly longer. National trends indicate that Irish people on reaching retirement age
return to Ireland. A period of economic prosperity and greater political stability has stimulated
the rate at which the Irish have left the city and England. The latter could in part explain why
the White Irish population is the only ethnic group showing a fall in population growth with (0.5%). As the Irish economy has taken a downturn in recent years it is likely that migration
patterns will reverse and the numbers of Irish migrants into the city will again increase.

3.1 Ethnic Groups Age and Gender
The largest ethnic populations other than the ‘White British’ grouped category are Pakistani
with 14,620, Indian with 10,907 and ‘other white’ with 9,751.
In Derby, the majority of the other ethnic groups have low populations and in some instances
5
the proportion of the population they make up is significantly lower than in the East Midlands
and England, for example the Chinese (0.52%) and Bangladeshi (0.26%) population.
Many of the longer established ethnic communities such as Indian and Caribbean have larger
populations throughout the age bands, whereas others: African, Arab and ‘other black’ have
much smaller populations.
Most ethnic groups are influenced by inward migration; however, the ‘white other’ population
has seen the most significant changes in the last ten years. Pre 2001 the ‘white other’
population in Derby was comparatively small and there was little difference in the numbers of
males and females. However, after a decade of in-migration this population has grown
significantly.
Not unusually, this population has high numbers in the 20-34 age category; 1,573 being
between 25-29, what is unusual is the disproportionate number of females, particularly in the
20-24 age category.
The Pakistani and Indian populations are long established in the city, however, in the last ten
years these have both grown in part due to inward migration. At a national level, new
migrants tend to be male and between the ages of 18 and 40, it is therefore possible that the
size of the 20-34 age bands has been influenced by in-migration in the last ten years.
Also of note is the number of younger children within ethnic communities:

Pakistani aged 0-4 (1,895) and 5-7 (988)
Indian aged 0-4 (835) and 5-7 (476)

The white British population now makes up 75.3% of the total population of Derby; this
proportion is lower than both the East Midlands (85.4%) and England (79.7%). Derby has
12.5% of its population made up by the Asian or Asian British racial group this is significantly
higher than both the East Midlands (6.5% and England (7.8%).The mixed race ethnic groups
make up 2.9% of the total population of the city; this is again higher than both the East
Midlands (1.90%) and England (2.3%).

Tables 3.1.2 and 3.1.3 illustrate the age and gender structure of ethnic groups resident in
Derby. Some ethnic groups have larger populations within specific age bands for example:

The Pakistani population has a younger age structure than many of the other ethnic
groups in the city. The number of children aged 0-4 is significantly larger than any
other age group, this is in part due to a higher fertility rate, but also because migration
continues to add to the most fertile population group; those under 30.

The Indian population has been added to by migration, particularly those between
twenty and thirty. At a national level migration accounts for two thirds of the Indian
populations growth from 2001-2011. The fertility rate in this population is significantly
lower than the Pakistani ethnic group but the numbers of children under the age of
seven remains comparatively high.

Immigration from Eastern Europe has in particular increased the size of the ‘Other
White’ population, among adults now aged in their 20s and 30s. The growing child
population is most likely the result of births in the UK to young migrant families, and
child migrants during the last decade.

5.0 Year of Migrant Arrival in Derby
The number of migrant arrivals in Derby has always fluctuated. Pre 1961 the number of
arrivals was comparatively small, peaking at 1,969 between 1951 and 1960. 1961-1970 saw
a sudden increase with 4,133 new migrants, however, from 1970 to 1990 the number of
new migrants declined, falling to 3,012 between 1971 and 1980 and to 2,332 between 1981
and 1990. 1991-2000 saw another rapid increase in migration to 4,571 followed by another

5.1 Migrant Age upon Arrival in the UK
Table 5.1.1 reflects the findings of section 3.1 as it clearly shows that certain age bands are
dominant amongst migrants into the city. Of particular note are the 18,142 migrants that
comprise the 20-44 age categories. Of these, the most notable is the 20-24 year olds with
7,359 migrants. The other significant migrant age band is the 0-4 year olds (4,087) which
shows that a large number of very young children are accompanying their parents into the
city. The latter in part clarifies the fact that the majority of adult migrants into the city are of a
comparatively young age.

5.3 Passports Held by Derby Residents
The highest numbers of non UK passports are held by migrants from EU Accession
countries such as Poland with 3,183 and ‘Other non EU country’ held passports at 2,980.
Some Asian countries such as India (2,391) and Pakistan (1,481) also have higher numbers
of non UK passports; this is in part a reflection of the high numbers of recent migrants as a
large proportion of these residents are UK born.
