What this map shows

318 of 318 local authority areas have a current value for no religion (share of usual residents), Census 2021 (21 March 2021). Classes are quantiles of the areas with data, computed on the server, so the same link always gives the same legend.

What this does not measure

2011 areas are stored on 2011 codes; change periods need the geography stream's 2011→2021 lookup and the census stream's category mapping (source_value_2011). Until both land the change period returns no data rather than an interpolated figure (§20).
