Notes: 1) Due to the Second World War, there is no 1941 census data;
           2) The dip after 1961 follows boundary changes;
           3) UK: 1801 - 10m people lived in 2m households; 2001 - 60m lived in 24m households
           4) UK: 1831 - 16% lived in urban areas; 1991 - 90% lived in urban areas
           5) UK: 1951 - 30% of households had no fixed bath; 4% had no WC (some would have shared)
           6) Kent: 45% decline in agricultural workers from 1861 to 1931; 1991 they were 1% of Kent’s population.

The 2001 Census led the Office of National Statistics to create short and readable county-level assessments of changes over the past 200 years - the Kent pdf file can be found here.
