Age
Most respondents were aged 35 or over, with fairly uniform response rates in each of the four age bands in this range, as seen in Chart 1. Just over 10 % of respondents were aged 34 or younger. There were only six respondents aged 16-20 however this is not unexpected given the low number of householders in this age range.
National Records of Scotland’s population data for 2021 shows that 64% of Angus’s population is comprised of those aged 35 or older (25% are aged 65 or over and 21% of respondents were in this age group). Fourteen percent of Angus residents are aged 21 - 34, with 10% of responses coming from this age group. Sixteen percent of the population is comprised of residents aged 1-15, who are not accounted for in this survey as they are not expected to be householders.
Population figures do not equate to householder status however do indicate that the response rate by age band is broadly representative of the Angus population.
