Small area projections: data sources, assumptions and implementation in POPGROUP, drawing on a recent implementation for electoral wards in Manchester
Manchester City Council Forecasting Model (MCCFM) brings together local intelligence to build on official estimates and projections by enhancing them with finer detail and outputting at small area. Rather than applying city-level longitudinal trends and rates to project future population, longitudinal ward-level data have been used to calculate fertility and mortality rates. 2011 Census distributions have been used along with HESA data and school censuses to improve prediction. Local data continues to be gathered and input to keep refining the model and two main outputs are released per year.
Speaker: Elisa Bullen, Manchester City Council
