What this means

10.4% of adults aged 18 and over in Coventry reported currently smoking in the Annual Population Survey. This is a survey estimate, not proof that no one smokes when the estimate is zero.

95% confidence interval: 7.3–13.5 %. Source denominator: 277,948 weighted survey respondents (Persons, 18+ yrs); not the unweighted sample size.

Fingertips comparison: Similar England.

Caveats

  • Self-reported survey; some people under-report smoking.
  • Single-year survey estimate with a wide interval (7.3%–13.5%).
  • Lower means fewer adults smoke. No moral judgement — support to quit matters.

Missing or suppressed values are never shown as zero — every card above passed validation with a real numeric value.
