Population projections for Glasgow City Region Local Authorities, 2018- 2043
Lanarkshire Local AuthoritiesClick to enlarge
The population of North Lanarkshire is predicted to show a slight loss of population overall (-1%) between 2018 and 2043, while it is predicted that South Lanarkshire's population will increase slightly (+ 3%) over the next 25 years.
Dunbartonshire, Renfrewshire and Inverclyde Local AuthoritiesClick to enlarge
There are differing population forecasts for the remaining local authorities in the region. East Dunbartonshire's population is predicted to rise by 10% in the next 25 years, while East Renfrewshire's population is predicted to rise more substantially (by 13%). In contrast, the population of West Dunbartonshire is predicted to reduce by 7% and that of Inverclyde by 16%. In the case of Inverclyde, this projection forecasts a continuation of the long term downward trend in the area's population.
Glasgow is excluded from the graphs above for presentation purposes but population projections for Glasgow and the other large Scottish cities can be viewed here.
Notes
These projections are forecasts based on a range of assumptions about underlying demographics and therefore should be considered with caution. The projections shown are the principal projections rather than variant projections that NRS also produces.
