The interpretation of the AP&H Census 2011 is outlined below:

Population and Housing– is the type of census

2011 – is the year of the census

“It All Adds Up!” – the slogan adopted for the 2011 Population and Housing Census


Three orange dolphins - the three dolphins design is popular and helps to depict Anguilla, the country being surveyed. The three dolphins represent endurance, unity and strength; and are in a circle for continuity.

House – this represents the House listing, Housing Census and households being a basic unit for enumeration.

Pointed top of the house – this represents the pitch shape of many Anguillan structures. It also represents the upward direction of Anguilla’s population.


The four characters touching hands - symbolises the participation of all persons in the country; family structures; and it also reflects the diversity of the composition of Anguilla’s population- various ages, various races, all cohabiting the same space.

Open door – person’s willingness to be included in the census and also the mandatory participation of all households.


Adult male – human element of the population census, appeals to adult males and their importance in the process. They also represent an individual being a basic unit for enumeration.
