The Registrar-General's statistics relating to population and deaths
differ slightly from those compiled from local records. The total figures
in respect of the district as a whole, which are supplied by the RegistrarGeneral,
are set out in this report, but where classification has been
made, e.g., by age groups, sex, wards, etc., it has necessarily been based
on our own records, which may, in the aggregate, show slight discrepancies
compared with the Registrar-General's totals.
UNEMPLOYMENT
The following figures in respect of persons living in Carshalton
registered as unemployed at the Sutton Employment Exchange and the
Carshalton Youth Employment Bureau at the end of 1952 are supplied
through the courtesy of the Exchange Manager:
Men 186
Women 94
Boys 9
Girls 4
POPULATION
The Registrar-General's estimate of the home population at midyear
is 61,630. This is 100 less than a year ago. At the census in April,
1951, the population was 62,804. Between the census and mid-1952 the
natural increase was 290. The Registrar-General's estimate, therefore,
assumes that within this fifteen month period outward migration
exceeded inward migration by 1,464.
Accepting the Registrar-General's figure, the following table gives
the estimated distribution of the population based on knowledge of local
conditions.
