英國最新人口普查數據顯示,英國華裔人口約40萬人,占居民總數的0.7%。在2001年的英國人口普查中,華裔人口所占比例為0.4%。
London (CNS)--There are about 400,000 British Chinese living in the United Kingdom, accounting for 0.7 percent of the total population, according to the 2011 census for England and Wales released this week.
The proportion of Chinese was 0.4 percent in the 2001 census.
The survey indicates that the UK has a more diversified population than it did 10 years ago, due largely to increased migration.
The British government conducts the census every 10 years to better understand the basic living conditions of the country's residents. The data is used for public services, social policy-making and academic research.
