Mid and East Antrim, in numbers

All statistics

Mid and East Antrim council area. Every figure carries its own date.

The figures behind the findings, with dates and workings.

Population over time

2001 to 2025

Mid and East Antrim council area · people

Reviewed figures: 2001 to 2025. This reviewed record covers fewer than 30 years, so the chart opens on all of it.

Shown on this chart: 127,452 people in 2001; 139,964 people in 2025. 9.8% higher between these observations.

The line joins consecutive published observations.

Full history context

The population rose from 127,452 to 139,964 between 2001 and 2025.

2024 to 2025: 51 more people (0% higher).

This counts the whole council area. Growth alone does not establish overcrowding or a shortfall in services.

Data table and workings

All ages, both sexes, usual residents. Source series rebased to the 2021/2022 censuses; latest revisions replace older estimates.

These estimates cover the whole authority, including any surrounding towns and countryside.

Historical boundaries/revisions follow the source series; null years are not zero.

The table retains the full reviewed history when the chart is shortened. Preset ranges end at this measure’s latest published period. Yearly windows count published annual periods; monthly windows count months. Gaps are never filled with estimates.

Average home price over time

January 2005 to July 2026

Mid and East Antrim council area · Cash prices, before allowing for inflation

Reviewed figures: January 2005 to July 2026. This reviewed record covers fewer than 30 years, so the chart opens on all of it.

Shown on this chart: £97,053 in January 2005; £177,450 in July 2026. 82.8% higher between these observations.

The line joins consecutive published observations.

Full history context

Average home prices rose from £97,000 to £177,000 between January 2005 and July 2026.

July 2025 to July 2026: £6,000 more per home (3.8% higher).

Cash prices, before allowing for inflation. Changes do not show affordability without local earnings and household circumstances.

Data table and workings

Published UK House Price Index average price, all property types and all buyers, not seasonally adjusted. Entire series comes from the 2026-07 official full-file release, preserving its historical revisions and exact area codes. It is a mix-adjusted average, not the median price paid.

Prices are in pounds at the time, not adjusted for inflation.

Whole local authority area; not a typical home listing or the budget needed by a first-time buyer.

Provisional estimates can be revised. Historical boundaries follow the exact published source code; no old-code series has been relabelled.

Northern Ireland uses quarterly house-price observations repeated across months; repeated months are not new transactions.

The table retains the full reviewed history when the chart is shortened. Preset ranges end at this measure’s latest published period. Yearly windows count published annual periods; monthly windows count months. Gaps are never filled with estimates.
