Country level down to Output Areas and Small Areas
**Dataset population:** Persons aged 16 and over **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. **Country of birth** Country of birth is the country in which a person was born. This topic records whether the person was born in or if they were not born in a country. For the full country of birth classification in England and Wales, please see the [National Statistics Country Classification](https://webarchive.nationalarchives.gov.uk/20160105160709/https://www.ons.gov.uk/ons/guide-method/classifications/current-standard-classifications/national-statistics-country-classification/index.html). **Economic activity** Economic activity relates to whether or not a person who was aged 16 and over was working or looking for work in the week before census. Rather than a simple indicator of whether or not someone was currently in employment, it provides a measure of whether or not a person was an active participant in the labour market. A person's economic activity is derived from their 'activity last week'. This is an indicator of their status or availability for employment - whether employed, unemployed, or their status if not employed and not seeking employment. Additional information included in the economic activity classification is also derived from information about the number of hours a person works and their type of employment - whether employed or self-employed. The census concept of economic activity is compatible with the standard for economic status defined by the [International Labour Organisation (ILO)](https://www.ilo.org/global/statistics-and-databases/classifications/lang--en/index.htm). It is one of a number of definitions used internationally to produce accurate and comparable statistics on employment, unemployment and economic status.
