Note (County Durham and North Yorkshire)

The Borough of Stockton-on-Tees is the only administrative district divided between two ceremonial counties. The area south of the River Tees (the 2 Ingleby Barwick wards, Mandale & Victoria, Stainsby Hill, Village and Yarm wards) are in North Yorkshire, the larger remaining part in County Durham. The areas of the two parts are 46.0637 & 158.8988km² respectively.^[1] A 2022 freedom of information request to the ONS gave the area of ceremonial County Durham as 2,675.9484 km² and the ceremonial county of North Yorkshire as 8,654.2955km².^[2] Yearly population estimates are not available at ward level. The population split is estimated as 57,953:142,013, the same ratio as in the 2011 census (when it was 55,531:136,079).^[3] For this reason, it will be necessary to submit a freedom of information request to the ONS annually for the population, area and density of the ceremonial counties and to carefully check that this district has been properly divided and not simply added up.
