> Important notice > The Office for Statistics Regulation confirmed on 12/09/2024 that the gender identity estimates from Census 2021 are no longer [accredited official statistics](https://osr.statisticsauthority.gov.uk/accredited-official-statistics/) and are classified as [official statistics in development](https://osr.statisticsauthority.gov.uk/policies/official-statistics-policies/official-statistics-in-development/). > For further information please see: [Sexual orientation and gender identity quality information for Census 2021](https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/culturalidentity/sexuality/methodologies/sexualorientationandgenderidentityqualityinformationforcensus2021) __These datasets provide Census 2021 estimates that classify usual residents aged 16 years and over in England and Wales for gender identity by sex, gender identity by age and gender identity by sex and age.__ __Gender identity__ Gender identity refers to a person's sense of their own gender, whether male, female or another category such as non-binary. This may or may not be the same as their sex registered at birth. __Non-binary__ Someone who is non-binary does not identify with the binary categories of man and woman. In these results the category includes people who identified with the specific term "non-binary" or variants thereon. However, those who used other terms to describe an identity that was neither specifically man nor woman have been classed in "All other gender identities". __Sex__ This is the sex recorded by the person completing the census. The options were "Female" and "Male". __Trans__ An umbrella term used to refer to people whose gender identity is different from their sex registered at birth. This includes people who identify as a trans man, trans woman, non-binary or with another minority gender identity. __Trans man__ A trans man is someone who was registered female at birth, but now identifies as a man. __Trans woman__ A trans woman is someone who was registered male at birth, but now identifies as a woman. __Usual resident__ A usual resident is anyone who on Census Day, 21 March 2021, was in the UK and had stayed or intended to stay in the UK for a period of 12 months or more, or had a permanent UK address and was outside the UK and intended to be outside the UK for less than 12 months. _Notes:_ * To ensure that individuals cannot be identified in the data, population counts have been rounded to the nearest five and counts under 10 have been suppressed. * Percentages have been calculated using rounded data.
