One result of the enumeration of 1896 is the
transference of some 1,500 individuals, included in
the estimated population, from North to South
Paddington.
The population of " Registration" London, the
area included in the term " London " for statistical
purposes, was found on enumeration to be
4,411,271, on which basis the estimate for the middle
of 1896 is 4,421,492, as against an estimate of
4,435,955 based on the Census of 1891.
In estimating the population of the Parish at the
middle of 1896, the changes indicated by the enumeration
have been allowed for, and to obtain the
numbers in each sex-age-group, the proportions
ascertained at the Census of 1891 have been assumed
to be unchanged. The results of the calculations for
the Parish, as well as those for London, will be found
in Table 1.
