Census 1881 5,764
1891 23,965
1901 33,040
1911 61,222
1921 67,755
1931 117,688
But it must be borne in mind in considering the increase in
population that there have been added as a result of the extension
of boundaries the areas of Hanwell, Greenford and Northolt which
had at the Census of 1921 populations respectively of 20,481,
1,461 and 904. In effect the population of what is now the Borough
of Ealing was 90,601 in 1921. This means an intercensal increase
of 30 per cent. The populations in the various wards at the 1931
Census are shown by the following provisional figures supplied
by the Registrar-General. Since the last Census several of the
wards have had their boundaries altered so that the Census populations
of 1921 cannot properly be compared with those of 1931,
but those of Greenford and Northolt remain practically the same
and it is interesting to note that the population of the former has
increased from 1,461 to 15,244 and of the latter from 904 to 3,048
in ten years.
