Population and Demographics Sample Clauses

Population and Demographics. The North East of Scotland has a population of approximately 492,030 (229,840 in Aberdeen City, 262,190 in Aberdeenshire), which is approximately 9% of the Scottish total. The population continues to grow, at over double the Scottish rate of growth over the last decade. Important changes in the age profile of the region’s residents over the past decade have been recorded. The Skills Development Scotland (SDS) Aberdeen City & Shire Skills Assessment, published in January 2016, notes the region has experienced: · An increase in school roll numbers in the next five years when they are falling across Scotland · An increase in the number of adults aged 20 – 34 years old · Mixed movements in some ‘prime’ working age groups · A marked ageing of the population. The population of the region is forecast to continue to grow over the coming decade at a similar rate as the past decade, 9%, with most growth expected in the population of Aberdeen City. This contrasted with the past decade where most growth was experienced in Aberdeenshire. Again, this rate of expected growth is higher than the rate of growth predicted for Scotland as a whole. The SDS Aberdeen City & Shire Regional Skills Assessment forecasts that the “prime working age population of the region is expected to continue to grow, and the recent ageing of the population is expected to accelerate over the coming decade.” The Assessment also predicts that the greatest population increases will be amongst those over the age of 50, especially those over the age of 65. An increase in the number of young people under the age of 16, a decline in the 16-29 age group and an increase in the ‘prime’ working age group is expected: A strategy for growth in the North East has been set out in City and Shire Strategic Development Plan, with targets of increasing population of Aberdeen City to 500,000 by 2035 and annual house building in the region of 3,000 per year by 2020. Employment and Economy The employment rate is higher in the region than in Scotland - 74% in Aberdeen City and 78% in Aberdeenshire compared to the Scottish average of 73%. In July 2017 the Scottish wider rate of unemployment (including the economically inactive) stood at 4.5% compared to a UK rate of 4.6%. This compares to 4.8% in Aberdeen City and 3.7% in Aberdeenshire. Three areas in North East Scotland (Aberdeen Donside, Aberdeenshire East and Aberdeen Central) are listed in the top five areas of lowest unemployment in the country, with unemployment i...
