Migration levels: What do you know about your area? Migration is a topic which often features in newspaper column inches and on our television screens. Yesterday it was revealed that in the year ending March 2017 net migration (the balance between immigration – those entering the UK for a year or more, and emigration – those leaving the UK for a year or more) was estimated to be +246,000. Also, it was reported that across the UK 1 in 7 people were born outside the UK and 1 in 11 people were non-British nationals in 2016. But the picture of migration is more complex; migration affects some local areas more than others. What do you think the levels are like in your local area?   | | In 2016 the five local authorities with the largest proportions of non-British nationals were all in London. The UK region with the lowest proportion of non-British nationals is North East England (4%). Explore our map, showing the percentage of non-British population. |
