City of Edinburgh since 2017
Every series published for City of Edinburgh that reaches back to 2017, compared with its latest published period. Both ends are the publisher’s own figures and the difference is those two numbers subtracted. No year is interpolated, and where a series starts later than the year you picked it says so instead of being extended backwards.
