Notes
Excludes 957 in 1996, 1,395 in 2001, and 1,335 in 2006 who did specify their ethnicity.
People may specify more than one ethnicity and so the percentages may not sum to 100 percent.
The ethnicity question used in the 1996 census differed from that used in the 2001 and 2006 censuses.
ESANA = Europe (including Russia), South Africa and North America; MELAA = Middle Eastern, Latin American, and African.
