N.Ireland Protestant Catholic Other demographics and Nationality results from Census 2011

These are some of the best maps that ive found on the subject at hand. I'll put any other good ones i find up here as well.  The biggest news for me has been the emergence of a "northern Irish" identity. Whatever else this might mean i think its actually good news for unionists as a northern Irish identity is essentially an identity that is ok with the current constitutional situation. On that I think that the current protests by loyalists actually feed into this identity.. underneath the anger against the loyalists is a recognition that republicans have stirred the shit here on this issue..those who have been pushed away from loyalists by their recent actions have also been pushed away from republicans who (all though staying quiet currently) have been tarnished by this aswell because their actions started this off..(not to mention the naming a playground after an IRA guy)  The alliance are going to do well out of all of this which is ironically a good thing for unionists/loyalists cause a vote for alliance is ultimately a vote for the union (or independence I guess). Unionists and loyalist will just have to start to learn how to live where they are a minority.

Next Gen broadband usage in the Republic

Where the next the generation of Broadband is likely to take off. Interesting in that this is in someways the clearest representation of urban Ireland I've come across giving a truer (as i understand them) picture of the sizes of Irish cities and towns. For example Cork city is recorded as having decreased in size in the last census yet the reality is that the small towns (ballincollig, glanmire, carrigaline) around significantly increased. This pattern is replicated in other areas as well. I wonder if city boundaries will be redrawn in the future? 

I have forgotten where i found this map.
