Our community websites for Cardiff have been based on the 29 electoral wards that make up the city.
We adopted this approach because we could clearly identify very accurate data on each community from the Census Reports.
This data should also assist you – the business owner – to quantify and qualify your potential market.
The map on the right shows you the boundaries and also the numbers of each ward (community). The table below provides you with the data as contained in the 2001 Census report.
