It shows the areas of London where, for each area, the second most popular language is spoken by more than 5% of residents there, based on the 2011 Census. It clearly reveals London&#8217;s linguistic clusters, from Arabic to Yiddish and Lithuanian to Tamil.<\/p>\n<p>The full-size map is no longer on Neal&#8217;s website but you can download it <a href=\"http:\/\/mappinglondon.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/londonsecond_lang.jpg\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Note that this is not a map of people&#8217;s own second languages, but rather of the second most popular language spoken in each area. The areas used are Middle Super Output Areas which have a typical population of around 10000 people, so, as a guide at least 500 people within each area speak the language shown as their primary language. Middle Super Output Areas are a statistical grouping of areas. They are somewhat analogous to political wards, except that they change if their populations decrease below, or increase above, thresholds, whereas wards tend to remain constant.<\/p>\n<p><i>Thanks to Neal for creating this map and allowing us to host it here.
