Dataset population: Persons aged 3 and over
Ability to speak Welsh
A person is classified as being able to read Welsh if they tick 'Read Welsh', though they may also tick one or more of the following:
- Understand spoken Welsh
- Speak Welsh
- Write Welsh
In results that classify people by Welsh language skills, a person may appear in more than one category depending on which combination of skills they have.
Applicable to Wales only.
Age
Age is derived from the date of birth question and is a person's age at their last birthday, at 27 March 2011. Dates of birth that imply an age over 115 are treated as invalid and the person's age is imputed. Infants less than one year old are classified as 0 years of age.
General health
General health is a self-assessment of a person's general state of health. People were asked to assess whether their health was very good, good, fair, bad or very bad.
For England and Wales, this assessment is not based on a person's health over any specified period of time.
