This table provides counts of persons, cross-tabulated by detailed gender (cis/trans/non-binary) and age groups.
Only areas with a population of 5,000 or greater have data. Only areas with a population of 50,000 or greater have counts that are cross-tabulated by age.
The population falling under category ‘transgender’ or ‘non-binary’ is extremely small, thus extra care has been given to ensure the confidentiality of individuals within these categories. The use of the 3-category gender and transgender variables (or simply crossing Sex at birth with Gender) is limited to only certain users and the following confidentiality rules need to be applied.
- It requires at least 4 respondents to make the cell releasable.
- The availability of outputs based on the 3-category gender and transgender variables depends on the population size of the area of interest.
| Area Population Size | Data Released |
| Below 5,000 | No data released for 3-category gender/transgender (2-category gender only) |
| 5,000-50,000 | Total 3-category gender/transgender counts at geography level only |
| 50,000 – 100,000 | 3-Category gender/transgender can be cross tabulated with up to 2 other variables |
| Above 100,000 | 3-Category gender/transgender can be cross tabulated with up to 5 other variables |
In this table, only areas with a population of 5000 or greater have data. Only areas with a population of 50,000 or greater have counts that are cross-tabulated by age.
Gender refers to an individual's personal and social identity as a man, woman or non-binary person (a person who is not exclusively a man or a woman).
Gender includes the following concepts:
- gender identity, which refers to the gender that a person feels internally and individually;
- gender expression, which refers to the way a person presents their gender, regardless of their gender identity, through body language, aesthetic choices or accessories (e.g., clothes, hairstyle and makeup), which may have traditionally been associated with a specific gender.
A person's gender may differ from their sex at birth, and from what is indicated on their current identification or legal documents such as their birth certificate, passport or driver's licence. A person's gender may change over time.
Some people may not identify with a specific gender.
