What this ranking leaves out, and why. 2 villages here had fewer than 100 people in 2011 — at that size a percentage says more about the surveyor than the village, so they are excluded. A further 0 sit within half a point of the limits beyond which we treat a figure as implausible (+150% or −40%): they are the villages that only just survived that test, not the fastest moving, and ranking them first would be misleading. That is 2 excluded in total. How the limits are set.
