Demographics

[edit]

I have just put a {{fact}} tag on this paragraph:

There is a high incidence of Indians living in Alperton (about 75% of the population). There is also a small Sri Lankan community in Alperton (about 15%), and 10% stated as others

This is unsourced and is at variance with the census results for Alperton Ward on Brent Council's website: "Alperton Ward". Brent Council. Retrieved 13 July 2012. which gives (for 2001) Indians as 32.4%, "other Asian" as 12.3% and White British as 29.2% Lozleader (talk) 15:04, 13 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Incorrect information on Wikipedia shock

[edit]

My father, the sculptor Neville Boden was not born in Alperton, I have no idea where this mis-information has originated. He was born in Cape Town, South Africa [1]86.162.234.84 (talk) 10:18, 29 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

History

[edit]

Alperton's pre-1965 history is sadly lacking from this article. It was previously a part of Wembley, Middlesex, but we are not even given this bit of information to know where we might go to find some background for the neighbourhood's existence. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Oldontarian (talkcontribs) 10:42, 4 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
