FACTS ABOUT BRITISH BANGLADESHIS
According to the most reliable ‘official’ national enumeration – the decennial Census – in 2001; 283,063 Bangladeshis lived in the UK, i.e. 0.5% of the total population.

54% of the Bangladeshi population live in the Greater London area and a high proportion of these London inhabitants were located within the inner boroughs. Indeed, the ‘heartland’ of the London Bangladeshi community is to be found in Tower Hamlets, which contained 65,553 Bangladeshi residents or 22.8% of the UK Bangladeshi population.

The third generation of Tower Hamlets’ Bangladeshi population – those ‘born and bred’ in the area - constitutes approximately half of the community.

Tower Hamlets can be seen as part of an inner ring of London boroughs running from Westminster, Islington and Camden round to Hackney, Newham and Southwark.

In 2001, 118,346 Bangladeshis - 41.8% of the British Bangladeshi population - lived in this inner London ring.

However, other concentrations are also significant. The largest Bangladeshi population outside London is located in:

• Oldham – 9,817 in 2001 or 4.5% of the city’s population,
• While 20,836 are scattered across Birmingham (2% of the city’s population),
• 7,642 in Luton (4%)
• 4,967 in Bradford (1%).
