Developing from a small village into a town from the 1950s onwards, the 2011 census listed Yate's parish population as 21,789.[2] The market town of Chipping Sodbury (population 5,045) is contiguous with Yate to the east. In addition, a large southern section of the built-up area spills over into the parish of Dodington (population 8,206), and as a result, the total population of Yate's urban area is estimated at 35,000.
