Belfast year by year

Every series published for Belfast, on one time axis. An empty cell means nothing was published for that year: no figure is carried forward, interpolated or estimated to fill it. Where a series publishes more often than once a year, the cell holds the last period ending in that year.

How to read this

Each figure is the publisher’s own for the period named when you hover or focus the cell. A series that begins part-way along began then: nothing earlier is published for this area. Money is in cash terms, not adjusted for inflation, so a rise across the row is not the same as a rise in what the money buys.
