Migration fuels second largest annual jump in population in over 75 years

Almost all of this rise was due to international migration, with natural change – more births than deaths – accounting for only a small proportion. There were an estimated 61.8 million people in England and Wales in mid-2024, up 706,881 from 61.1 million in mid-2023, according to the Office for National Statistics (ONS). Net international migration – the difference between people moving to the country and leaving – was the 'main driver' of the jump in population and accounted for 98% (690,147) of the increase, the ONS said. The number of people living in England and Wales has risen annually since mid-1982, with migration contributing most to population growth every year since mid-1999. Before then, increases were caused mainly by natural change. The rise of 706,881 in the 12 months to June 2024 is the second biggest year-on-year numerical jump in population since at least 1949, which is the earliest comparable ONS data. It is behind only the rise of 821,210 that took place in the preceding 12 months from mid-2022 to mid-2023. This means the population is estimated to have grown by 1.5 million between June 2022 and June 2024: the largest two-year jump since current records began. Nigel Henretty of the ONS said: 'The population of England and Wales has increased each year since mid-1982. 'The rate of population increase has been higher in recent years, and the rise seen in the year to mid-2024 represents the second largest annual increase in numerical terms in over 75 years. 'Net international migration continues to be the main driver of this growth, continuing the long-term trend seen since the turn of the century.' Population change is mainly determined by international and internal migration, births and deaths. Although estimated net international migration (690,100) was lower in the year to mid-2024 compared with the previous year, it continued to contribute most to population growth. — Office for National Statistics (ONS) (@ONS) July 30, 2025 Some 1,142,303 people were estimated to have immigrated to England and Wales in the 12 months to June 2024, while 452,156 were likely to have emigrated, giving a figure of 690,147 for net international migration. This is lower than the equivalent figure for the previous year to June 2023, when net migration is estimated to have been 833,696. The drop is likely due to a fall in 2024 – previously reported by the ONS – in the number of foreign nationals from outside the EU coming to the UK on work and study visas, along with a rise in students leaving at end of their courses. Changes in migration rules introduced in early 2024 by the previous Conservative government included restricting the ability of most international students to bring family members with them to the UK, as well as banning overseas care workers from bringing dependants. There were slightly more births (596,012) than deaths (566,030) in England and Wales in the year to June 2024, which added 29,982 to the population. By contrast, internal migration from the two nations to elsewhere in the UK was higher (at 56,300) than the number of people moving in the other direction (42,693), meaning there was a net decrease in internal migration of 13,607. Overall, the size of the population of England and Wales grew by an estimated 1.2% in the year to June 2024, down slightly from 1.4% in the previous 12 months but above 1.0% in the year to mid-2022. There was a decrease in the number of births and deaths in the year to mid-2024, compared with mid-2023: • 596,000 births, down 2,400• 566,000 deaths, down 32,000 Natural change, the difference between births and deaths, contributed an increase of 30,000. — Office for National Statistics (ONS) (@ONS) July 30, 2025 It is also higher than levels in the previous decade, which averaged 0.7%. England saw a faster rate of growth in the 12 months to mid-2024, 1.2%, than in Wales, 0.6%. Regionally, annual growth ranged from 1.4% in north-west England to 1.0% in London. Natural change in the year to mid-2024 increased the size of the population in four regions: London, south-east England, the West Midlands and eastern England. The other regions had negative natural change, which reflects 'a long-term decline in fertility and an increasing number of deaths because of the growing proportion of older people', the ONS said. London had the highest rates of natural change and net international migration, but these were partially offset by net outward internal migration to other UK countries or regions in England. Across the 10 years from mid-2014 to mid-2024, the East Midlands has seen the highest level of growth at 9.1%, while north-east England has seen the lowest at 5.8%. The total population of England and Wales is estimated to have grown by 7.6% over these 10 years, an increase of nearly 4.4 million people. Conservative shadow Home Office minister Katie Lam said the ONS data showed the population is rising at 'an unsustainable pace', which is 'almost entirely driven by record levels of immigration'. She added: 'This isn't about numbers on a spreadsheet, it's about pressure on housing, NHS waiting lists, school places, wages and it's about community and our culture. Britain simply cannot plan or build fast enough to keep up. 'As well as ending mass migration, the Government has to do more to tackle illegal immigration. As we've seen with Keir Starmer's one out, 17 in 'deal' with the French this Government has no plan to deal with the crisis in the Channel. We must secure our borders and deliver a fair and sustainable immigration system that works for the British people.' Home Secretary Yvette Cooper said the figures 'confirm the truth of the Tory legacy on immigration', adding: 'Their failed open borders experiment resulted in net migration quadrupling to a peak of almost a million per year in 2023 even as they promised it would fall. 'Since the election, net migration has come steeply down, and as part of the Government's Plan for Change we have set out new measures in the Immigration White Paper and have already changed immigration rules to bring net migration down further. 'To be successful, effective and fair, our immigration system must be properly controlled and managed. Out of the chaos and failure of the Tory past, that is what this Government will deliver.' Net migration to the UK is estimated by the ONS to have stood at 739,000 in the year ending June 2024 – broadly coinciding with the final 12 months of the Conservative government – down from a record 906,000 in the year to June 2023. The latest ONS figures are for the year ending December 2024, when net migration was estimated to be 431,000, down from 860,000 in the previous 12 months.

Migration fuels England and Wales population jump, figures suggest

The population of England and Wales is estimated to have jumped by more than 700,000 in the year to June 2024, the second largest rise in more than 75 years, figures Office for National Statistics (ONS) said almost all of the increase was due to international migration, despite it being lower than the previous year at 690,100 compared with 833,700 in the 12 months to June 2023. Natural change - where there are more births than deaths - accounted for only a small estimates suggest there were 61.8 million people in England and Wales in June 2024, up 706,881 from 61.1 million in mid-2023. Chris Mason: Why Labour aims to buck trend of rising migrationWhat are the challenges facing the government's immigration plan? The number of people living in England and Wales has risen annually since mid-1982, with migration contributing most to the growth every year since then, natural change was the main reason for rise in the year to June 2024 is the second biggest year-on-year jump in population since at least 1949 - the earliest comparable ONS immigration has been a key challenge for both the previous Conservative and current Labour said the estimates published on Wednesday "confirm the truth of the Tory legacy on immigration".Home Secretary Yvette Cooper said: "Under the Tories, overseas recruitment shot up while training in the UK was cut, lower-skilled migration soared while the proportion of UK residents in work plummeted and hundreds of thousands of people were given visas to arrive and stay in the UK."She said net migration had "come steeply down" under Labour, there were now tighter controls on visas and stronger requirements to link the points-based immigration system to skills and home secretary Chris Philp acknowledged the numbers were "far too high" and "the pressure on housing and social cohesion is unacceptable".He said: "Under new leadership the Conservative Party has put forward serious, workable policies to get immigration numbers dramatically down."Leader of Reform UK, Nigel Farage, said the figures were "disastrous for the quality of life for everyone in the country. It puts impossible pressures on public services and further divides our communities". The ONS estimates suggest 1,142,303 people immigrated to England and Wales in the 12 months to June 2024, while 452,156 were likely to have emigrated, leaving a net migration figure of 690, drop from a net migration of 833,696 the previous year is likely due to to a fall in the number of foreign nationals from outside the EU coming to the UK on work and study visas, along with a rise in students leaving at the end of their in migration rules introduced in early 2024 by the previous Conservative government included restrictions on international students bringing family members with them to the UK as well as banning overseas care workers from bringing were slightly more births (596,012) than deaths (566,030), adding 29,982 to the natural change increased the size of the population in four regions - London, south-east England, the West Midlands and eastern ONS said other regions had negative natural change, reflecting "a long-term decline in fertility and an increasing number of deaths because of the growing proportion of older people".Previous ONS statistics showed women in England and Wales had an average of 1.44 children between 2022 and 2023, the lowest on 10 years from 2014 to 2024, the East Midlands had the highest level of growth at 9.1%, while north-east England had the lowest at 5.7%.

Migration fuels second largest population jump in England and Wales for more than 75 years

The population of England and Wales has grown by the second largest annual increase in more than 75 years, largely due to international migration. Figures from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) show the population grew by 700,000 in the year to June 2024, the second largest numerical jump since at least 1949, when comparable data began. The size of the increase is second only to the rise of 821,210 in the preceding 12 months from mid-2022 to mid-2023. The ONS found net international migration – the difference between people moving to the country and leaving – accounted for 690,147 of the estimated population increase of 706,881 people, or 98% of the total. It is estimated 1,142,303 people immigrated to England and Wales in the 12 months to June 2024, while 452,156 were likely to have emigrated. Meanwhile, natural population change, which is the difference between births and deaths, accounted for only a small proportion of the increase. There were slightly more births (596,012) than deaths (566,030) in the year to mid-2024, which added 29,982 to the population. In total there were an estimated 61.8 million people in England and Wales in mid-2024, up 1.2% from 61.1 million in mid-2023. Internal migration to England and Wales from other parts of the UK was lower (42,693) than people moving from the two nations to elsewhere in the UK (56,300). Nigel Henretty from the ONS said that 'the population of England and Wales has increased each year since mid-1982', but 'the rate of population increase has been higher in recent years. 'Net international migration continues to be the main driver of this growth, continuing the long-term trend seen since the turn of the century,' he said. Earlier this year, the UK population exceeded that of France for the first time on record after it rose to 68.3 million in mid-2023 – the population of France stood at 68.2 million. The ONS has predicted the UK population will grow to 73.7 million by mid-2036, hitting the 70 million mark a decade earlier than previously thought. Those projections assumed net migration would fall over the next few years from a peak of about 670,000 in the 12 months to June 2023, before settling at 315,000 from 2028 onwards. In May, the government unveiled its plans to cut immigration, which included cuts to legal migration routes, stricter English requirements and tightening the rules for some work visas. Keir Starmer faced heavy criticism for saying the UK risked becoming an 'island of strangers' as he announced the plans, later saying he 'deeply regretted' using the language. The government has also expressed concern at the UK's falling birthrate, which is at 1.44 children per woman, the lowest since records began in 1938 and below the figure of about 2.1 needed to maintain a population. The education secretary, Bridget Phillipson, said she wanted 'more young people to have children, if they choose', saying the cost of living and housing was putting people off starting a family.

Anglesey named among the best places in Wales to retire

The study scored areas across a range of factors that make up a happier later life, including access to healthcare, opportunities to build social connections, access to nature, local amenities and financial security. The index was compiled by scoring areas against six 'pillars' – housing, health, social and community, financial, nature, and amenities – and was based on analysis of a wide range of existing data, including Office for National Statistics (ONS) figures, census data and housing and house price reports. Opinium survey findings from research among 3,000 UK retirees in April 2024 were also analysed. The happiest retirees were defined as those with a life satisfaction score greater than the sample median. Ynys Mon, or Anglesey, is on the list of the best places to retire in Wales, ranking in fourth place. The island is separated from the mainland of Wales by the Menai Strait. Visit Anglesey states: 'We're a small island with a big, boundless personality. A proper island too, not an offshoot of Wales, with our own strong identity, atmosphere, culture and community spirit.' Monmouthshire was named the best place in Wales to retire, followed by Dwyfor Meirionnydd and the Vale of Glamorgan in 2nd and 3rd place respectively. Here are all the best places to retire in Wales, according to L&G's research: Lorna Shah, managing director – retail retirement at L&G, said: 'This research gives us a more complete picture of what shapes a happy later life.

'Financial security in particular, is an enabler for many of the other measures, giving people the freedom to choose where and how they want to live in later life.' Overall, Chesham and Amersham took the top spot in the list of Britain's best places to retire.

Full list of population change for local areas in England and Wales

Here is a full list of the estimated change in population for every local authority area in England and Wales between mid-2023 and mid-2024. Of the 318 local authorities, the population is estimated to have increased in 306 and decreased in 12. The figures have been published by the Office for National Statistics (ONS). The authorities with the largest percentage increase and decrease, City of London and Isles of Scilly respectively, have very small populations which means they have outlying results.
