Gypsy and Traveller Counts

Department for Communities and Local Government (formerly ODPM) statistics

There is no comprehensive source of information about the number or characteristics of Gypsies/Travellers in England. The DCLG caravan count statistics are the only source of data currently available. The count is carried out on a specified date in January and July each year, giving a snapshot of the number and location of caravans/families on those days. January and July were selected to give an idea of winter and summer patterns, given the known seasonality of travelling. The Gypsy caravan/family count is therefore very important as it is almost the only source of information about Gypsies/Travellers which gives any idea of numbers and distribution of the Travelling communities
