In common with the rest of England, censuses have been taken in Kirby Muxloe since 1801, with the exception of 1941 when, due to war conditions, none was taken.

The early censuses of 1801 to 1831 contain only statistical information. The 1841 census was the first to record household information for posterity.

The following list shows the census date, with a link to a transcription where available. The remaining censuses can be found on family history subscription websites and other places.
