Local context

About this constituency

Aylesbury is centred on the Buckinghamshire county town and includes almost all of its main urban neighbourhoods. The constituency also extends east and north-east through Bierton and Aston Clinton and farther into the villages around Wing and Ivinghoe. Aylesbury itself forms the clear population and service centre, with a compact urban area surrounded by much more open countryside. Beyond the town, the seat reaches toward the Chilterns and the Vale of Aylesbury, where settlements are smaller and more dispersed. The 2024 constituency therefore combines a large and growing town with a substantial rural fringe, rather than following the built-up area alone.

Description last reviewed 30 August 2026.

Home ownership and renting

Housing tenure shows how households in this constituency described their home at the most recent census.

44,191 householdsCensus 2021
Home owners66.3% · 29,287 households
Private renters16.5% · 7,289 households
Social renters15.5% · 6,833 households
Other tenure1.8% · 782 households

“Other tenure” combines shared ownership and households recorded as living rent free.

Housing-tenure figures come from the most recent census: 2021 in England, Wales and Northern Ireland and 2022 in Scotland. View housing-tenure source ↗

Household composition

A broad view of household types in this constituency. Project Open Gov uses the four broad groups supplied by the Commons Library so the presentation remains consistent across the UK.

44,191 householdsCensus 2021
One-person households27.6% · 12,190 households
Families with dependent children32.1% · 14,206 households
Other single-family households36.2% · 15,988 households
Other household types4.1% · 1,807 households

Household-composition figures come from the Commons Library constituency dataset. The source uses census data and Project Open Gov displays its broad household groups rather than attempting to harmonise the detailed categories itself. View household-composition source ↗

Disability and day-to-day activities

The source records whether day-to-day activities are limited and uses separate person-level tables for England & Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.

109,466 people in the source baseCensus 2021Source comparison: England & Wales
Day-to-day activities limited a lot5.4% · 5,894 people
Day-to-day activities limited a little9.1% · 9,940 people
Not disabled under the Equality Act85.5% · 93,632 people

Comparison note: the workbook uses different source terminology across the UK: England & Wales uses “Disabled under the Equality Act”, while Scotland and Northern Ireland use “Disabled” / “Non-disabled”. Project Open Gov therefore preserves the source categories and does not present them as one single like-for-like UK legal definition.

Disability figures come from the Commons Library constituency workbook. This profile uses the person-level tables only; the workbook also contains separate household-level disability tables which are not used here. View disability source ↗
