Census 2001 - Standard Table Wards
2001 ST Wards
A 2001 Standard (ST) ward is one of 2 special wards created for 2001 Census Output. These are both created by aggregating output areas and are only best-fit for electoral wards. Where 2001 Census Area Statistic (CAS) wards fall below the ST thresholds (400 households and 1,000 persons) they are merged with neighbouring CAS wards to exceed the threshold. It is also necessary to make a few adjustments to ST wards so as to remove and ‘slivers’ below ST threshold created by differencing ST wards and ST sectors. The processes result in 1,176 ST wards.

It is also necessary to make a few adjustments to ST wards so as to remove and ‘slivers’ below ST threshold created by differencing ST wards and ST sectors. The processes result in 1,176 ST wards. ST wards that are mergers of CAS wards are labelled ‘South Ronaldsay; Holm and Burray’ with a semi-colon to indicate the merger. For slivers, ST wards containing part, or sliver, of a CAS ward are labelled ending in part ‘Innerleithen and Walkerburn; Peebles and District South (part)’ ST wards cover Scotland and extend to the Mean High Water Mark (MHW).
