"Figure 5: Year of arrival in the UK by country of birth","" "England and Wales, 2011, Non-UK born usual residents","" "","" "Notes","1. Year of arrival in the UK counts the most recent year of arrival of those not born in the UK. For example an individual who arrives in 1961 and leaves in 1980 only to arrive again in 2005, will only be counted as arriving in 2005 2. For each year of arrival an estimate is given of all those who were usually resident in England and Wales in 2011. It does not count anyone who left the country before the 2011 Census. This means that those arriving earlier have more ‘opportunity’ (in terms of time) to leave the country than those arriving more recently" "Unit","Thousands" "","" "","Europe","Africa","Middle East and Asia","The Americas and the Caribbean","Antartica and Oceania" "Arrived before 1961","322.0","35.8","94.4","79.2","9.1" "Arrived 1961-1970","198.8","100.0","238.5","117.7","11.8" "Arrived 1971-1980","140.0","147.1","279.2","46.0","16.7" "Arrived 1981-1990","175.5","135.8","275.1","50.1","16.1" "Arrived 1991-2000","367.2","295.5","433.9","111.9","31.0" "Arrived 2001-2011","1544.9","598.3","1266.0","268.6","98.7"
