Description

MIGRATION AND GAELIC COMMUNITY DILUTION Since questions on Gaelic were first asked on the population census in 1881, there has been a rapid contraction of the Gaelic-majority area in Scotland. At the end of the nineteenth century the area where the majority of the local population spoke Gaelic extended across the whole of the mainland Highlands, Arran, Bute and the Cumbraes, and the Inner and Outer Hebrides. By the inter-war period this had contracted to the Inner and Outer Hebrides and the north-western coastal fringes. By 1981 this area comprised Tiree, Skye and the Outer Hebrides only. In the 2001 census the Outer Hebrides and northern Skye were the only areas with 50% or more of local residents speaking Gaelic.
