Statistics

To use the Government Statistics Website, you need to allow ‘pop ups’ for that website
How do you do that? Open your Browser (Internet Explorer usually), Go to Tools > Pop Up Blocker > Settings - type the address in the “Exceptions” box www.neighbourhood.statistics.gov.uk. Then go to the website and all should be well.

I have reproduced here a sample of what you can find on the National Statistics Website.
