Data Location https://www.cse.org.uk/projects/view/1259#Heating_and_housing_census_data
Linked Dataset outside of EDC
Description The Centre for Sustainable Energy (CSE) has downloaded and compiled selected data relevant to housing and energy use at the lowest available geographical area level from the UK Office for National Statistics 2011 census summary data. Lower Super Output Areas (LSOA) typically contain 70 to 150 households and so cover a relatively small geographical area.

Other Information The Office for National Statistics publishes summary census data over a range of geographical levels after a national census has been performed. As the 2011 census data has become available, CSE has downloaded and compiled selected datasets at the lowest available geographical area. Output levels typically contain 70 to 150 households and so cover a relatively small geographical area, dependent upon rurality.
CSE has downloaded and joined key data sets from the Office for National Statistics census 2011 website. There are many potentially interesting topics that could be investigated from the data available, and CSE has chosen data that could be relevant to characterising housing and their energy usage.
No processing has been performed on this data, and so for any questions and information about the data users should refer to the Office for National Statistics website. Users should be particularly aware of the statistical disclosure control for 2011 census information.
