&lt;p&gt;Significant Urban Areas (SUAs) represent Urban Centres, or groups of Urban Centres, that contain population of 10,000 persons or more. They are based on Urban Centres and Localities (UCLs) and built from Statistical Areas Level 2 (SA2). This enables a wider variety of statistical data to be available on this geography including non-Census data such as Estimated Resident Population (ERP).&lt;p/&gt;
