Comparison with other urban areas[edit]

Please note that the ONS uses a consistent methodology to construct its list of urban areas. Thus its composition should not be considered 'strange' compared to other urban areas in Wales or other parts of the UK. If you wish to read more of the basis of the definition, please see http://www.statistics.gov.uk/downloads/theme_compendia/fom2005/03_FOPM_UrbanAreas.pdf or http://www.statistics.gov.uk/downloads/census2001/ks_ua_ew_part1.pdf Pondle (talk) 00:45, 4 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
