Dullatur in context

The population, measured on a real boundary

The locality figure is Scotland's Census 2022, summed over the Scottish Postcode Directory's own postcodes for this locality; across all of Scotland that method lands within 601 people of the national census total. Where the two rows disagree, the census locality is the figure to quote.
Age profile
| Measure | Value |
|---|---|
| Median age (exact) | 44 |
| Under 15 | 15.3% |
| 65 and over | 14.9% |
| 85 and over | 1.1% |
Scotland's Census 2022 publishes single year of age at output-area level, so this median is exact — the middle resident's actual age, with nothing interpolated. England's published tables stop at five-year bands, which is why English pages label their medians estimated and this one is not. Percentiles compare the 90 Scottish towns of 10,000+ residents with each other, never with England or Wales: their figures are a different census year, and a percentile that quietly mixed the two would be a lie with a percent sign.
Who owns the homes
| Measure | % of households |
|---|---|
| Owned, outright or with a mortgage | 95.9% |
| of which owned outright | 45.2% |
| Social rented | 1.4% |
| Private rented | 3.2% |
| Household has no car or van | 5.9% |
| Household has two or more | 80.5% |
Scotland's Census 2022, over the 221 occupied households of the locality. Shared ownership and shared equity count with mortgaged homes; every share is of households, not residents.
Getting to work
| How working residents travelled (census day) | Share |
|---|---|
| Worked mainly from home | 39.4% |
| Car or van (of those who travelled) | 89.8% |
| Public transport (of those who travelled) | 10.7% |
| On foot (of those who travelled) | 0.5% |
| Bicycle (of those who travelled) | 0.0% |
Scotland's Census 2022, collected 20 March 2022: past the last legal restrictions, but with home working still far above the old normal, so these are census-day records and mode shares are of the 340 employed residents who travelled, never of everyone.
