List of English districts by ethnic diversity

This is a list of districts of England in order of ethnic diversity (2001 UK census).

Of the first 25 districts in the list, only four (Slough, Leicester, Birmingham and Luton) are not London boroughs.

Also note - these do not include those of mixed-race which is the main reason why the percentages do not add up to 100. The other reason is rounding.
