Demography of Cardiff : ウィキペディア英語版 | Demography of Cardiff This article presents the historical demographics of Cardiff, capital city of Wales in the United Kingdom. ==Overview==
Following a period of decline during the 1970s and 1980s, Cardiff's population is growing. The local authority area had an estimated population of more than 324,800 in 2008, compared to a 2001 Census figure of 305,353. Between mid-2007 and mid-2008, Cardiff was the fastest-growing local authority in Wales with population growth rate of 1.2%.〔 According to Census 2001 data, Cardiff was the 14th largest settlement in the United Kingdom,〔(Key Statistics for urban areas in England and Wales ), ''Census 2001''. Retrieved 2008-06-12.〕 and the 21st largest urban area.〔Pointer, Graham, (The UK’s major urban areas ), ''Focus on People and Migration'', 2005. Retrieved 2008-06-12.〕 The Cardiff Larger Urban Zone (a Eurostat definition including the Vale of Glamorgan and a number of local authorities in the Valleys) has 841,600 people, the 10th largest LUZ in the UK. The Cardiff and South Wales Valleys metropolitan area has a population of nearly 1.1 million people.〔http://www.espon.eu/export/sites/default/Documents/Projects/ESPON2006Projects/StudiesScientificSupportProjects/UrbanFunctions/fr-1.4.3_April2007-final.pdf#page=119〕 Official estimates derived from the census regarding the city's total population have been disputed. The city council has published two articles that argue the 2001 census seriously under reports the population of Cardiff and, in particular, the ethnic minority population of some inner city areas.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Cardiff Council Representations to ONS on the 2001 Census: Section 1 )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Cardiff Council Representations to ONS on the 2001 Census: Section 2 )〕 Cardiff has an ethnically diverse population due to its past trading connections, post-war immigration and the large numbers of foreign students who attend university in the city. The ethnic make-up of Cardiff's population at the time of the 2001 census was: 91.6% white, 2% mixed race, 4% South Asian, 1.3% black, 1.2% other ethnic groups. According to a report published in 2005, over 30,000 people from an ethnic minority live in Cardiff, around 8.4% of the city's total — many of these communities live in Butetown, where ethnic minorities make up around a third of the total population. This diversity, and especially that of the city's long-established African and Arab communities, has been celebrated in a number of cultural exhibitions and events, along with a number of books which have been published on this subject.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Black History in Butetown )〕
