Key findings:
• The net effect of 3 years of migration to June 2010 was a gain of 2,560
people, mainly from the South East, London, the East and the West Midlands.
There was a net loss of people to elsewhere in the south west. These patterns
are more clearly seen on the subsequent map.
• It must be remembered that this is a measure of the movement of people and
not households. Applying the most reliable average household size from the
2011 Census of 2.32 across the area implies a net gain in the region of 1,140
households over this period, or 380 households per annum and an equivalent
demand on the housing market.
