Source: ONS Census 2021 (Table TS021, Ethnic Group), London Datastore. "Est. non-White 25+" is modelled by applying national 2021 Census age-profile rates for each ethnic group to each borough's population — not an exact count, since the Census doesn't publish age × ethnicity × borough directly. Treat as an informed estimate, particularly for the Mixed population which skews young nationally (median age 19).
