Accuracy
These figures are based on aggregating 2001 Data Zone data on a 'best fit' basis. This means that results for higher geographies such as Council Areas are estimates.
Best-fit simply means that when Data Zones are aggregated and assigned to a higher geography, they do not fit exactly into the boundary of the higher geography; instead they form an approximation to the shape of the boundary of the higher geography. For further information on best-fit for geographies, see National Records of Scotland Geography Policy on Best-fit and Exact-fit.
