• 1951: The Split-Labor Phenomenon: Its Impact on West Indian Workers as a Marginal Working Class in Birmingham, England, 1948-1962 by Lydia Lindsey, Page 121; Race Relations in Britain by Robin H. Ward, Page 469: "The population born in the New Commonwealth had risen from about 5,000 in 1951 to about 30,000 in a decade, and five years later was an estimated 50,000", which is consistent with the estimates provided for other sources (see main table on the Demographics of Birmingham page).
• 1961: Some Aspects of the Changing Distribution of Coloured Immigrants in Birmingham, 1961-66 by Philip N. Jones, Page 202; "In the intercensal period 1961-66 the coloured immigrant population expanded rapidly. From a 1961 figure of 28,169.."

• 1981 (and 1991): Ethnicity in the 1991 census: Vol 3 - Social geography and ethnicity in Britain (which estimates all detailed 1991 ethnicites backwards to 1981 and accounts for 1991 undercounting), Appendix 2.2.

This was changed from a slightly different figure in December 2024 of 84.8% White which utilised figures from the 1981 census 'New Commonwealth country of birth to head of house applied to those in present residence', the common estimation method for the non-White population. This figure was used in Ethnic minorities in Britain: statistical information on the pattern of settlement, Table 2.2.
