About Edinburgh.
At the United Kingdom Census 2001, Edinburgh had a population of
448,624, a rise of 7.1% on 1991. Estimates in 2008 placed the total
resident population at 471,650 split between 227,922 males and
243,728 females. This makes Edinburgh the second largest city in
Scotland after Glasgow. According to the European Statistical
agency, Eurostat, Edinburgh sits at the heart of a Larger Urban Zone
covering 665 square miles (1,724 km2) with a population of 778,000.
The cramped tenements of the Royal Mile were once home to most of
Edinburgh's population. Edinburgh has a higher proportion of those
aged between 16 and 24 than the Scottish average, but has a lower
proportion of those classified as elderly or pre-school. Over 95% of
Edinburgh respondents classed their ethnicity as White in 2001, with
those identifying as being Indian and Chinese at 1.6% and 0.8% of
the population respectively. In 2001, 22% of the population were
born outside Scotland with the largest group of immigrants coming
from England at 12.1%. Since the 2004 enlargement of the European
Union, a large number of migrants from the accession states such as
Poland, Lithuania and Latvia have settled in the city, with many
working in the service industry.
There is evidence of human habitation on Castle Rock from as early
as 3,000 years ago. A census conducted by the Edinburgh presbytery
in 1592 estimated a population of 8,000 scattered equally north and
south of the High Street which runs down the spine of the ridge
leading from the Castle. In the 18th and 19th Centuries, the
population began to expand rapidly, rising from 49,000 in 1751 to
136,000 in 1831 primarily due to rural out-migration. As the
population swelled, overcrowding problems in the Old Town,
particularly in the cramped tenements that lined the present day
Royal Mile and Cowgate, were exacerbated. Sanitary problems and
disease were rife.The construction of James Craig's masterplanned
New Town from 1766 onwards witnessed the migration of the
professional classes from the Old Town to the lower density, higher
quality surroundings taking shape on land to the north. Expansion
southwards from the Royal Mile/Cowgate axis of the Old Town saw more
tenements being built in the 19th century, giving rise to present
day areas such as Marchmont, Newington and Bruntsfield.
Early 20th century population growth coincided with lower density
suburban development in areas such as Gilmerton, Liberton and South
Gyle. As the city expanded to the south and west, detached and semi
detached villas with large gardens replaced tenements as the
predominant building style. Nonetheless, the 2001 census revealed
that over 55% of Edinburgh's population live in tenements or high
rise flats compared to the Scottish average of 33.5%.
Throughout the early to mid 20th century many new estates were built
in areas such as Craigmillar, Niddrie, Pilton, Muirhouse, Piershill
and Sighthill, linked to slum clearances in the Old Town. |
