By Benjamin Flowers: The Statistical Institute of Belize is pushing to have the preliminary results of the 2022 Population and Housing Census ready by the end of September,
Deputy Director General of the SIB Miriam Willoughby, told Breaking Belize News this week.

Willoughby explained that due to delays mainly caused by Hurricane Lisa in November 2022, the data collection phase of the census did not officially finish until January 20. The Belize District, which was the hardest hit by the hurricane, was the last region to be counted.

“Right now we are in the data processing phase. So we’re going through all the data that has been collected and in some cases, we may have to verify some information in the field. So it takes a couple of weeks before we will have a final database from the census,” Willoughby said. “We are estimating to have preliminary results from the census by the end of third quarter this year.”

She went on to say that, following the release of the preliminary results, the SIB will be following up with a number of thematic reports which will present findings from the analysis of various aspects of the census data. The first two of those thematic reports are estimated to be released in December 2023 and March 2024.
