This dataset describes the 'Lower layer Super Output Areas' used by the Office for National Statistics for many of its statistical outputs.

This dataset has been converted from a download of geography data from the Office for National Statistics Neighbourhood Statistics website. It provides information about Lower layer Super Output Areas (LSOAs), their location and the Local Authority District to which they belong.

Where a LSOA intersects with a parish, the dataset includes a link from LSOA to parish. Because LSOA and parish boundaries do not align, it is possible for an LSOA to intersect with several parishes. Note that parishes only exist in some parts of England, therefore there are many LSOAs with no link to a parish.

This zip file contains the Standard Area Measurements (SAM) for the 2011 Census areas in England and Wales as at 31 December 2011 in CSV and XLSX format. This includes the Output Areas (OA), Lower Layer Super Output Areas (LSOA) and Middle Layer Super Output Areas (MSOA). All measurements provided are ‘flat’ as they do not take into account variations in relief e.g. mountains and valleys. Measurements are given in hectares (10,000 square metres) to 2 decimal places. Four types of measurements are included: total extent (AREAEHECT), area to mean high water (coastline) (AREACHECT), area of inland water (AREAIHECT) and area to mean high water excluding area of inland water (land area) (AREALHECT). The Eurostat-recommended approach is to use the ‘land area’ measurement to compile population density figures.Click the Download button to download the file

This file provides a rural-urban view of 2001 Lower Layer Super Output Areas (LSOA) in England and Wales. The ZIP file contains the Rural Urban Classification in XLSX and CSV format and includes a user guide. The files were originally from the NeSS website. Click on the Download button to download the ZIP file.The classification of rural and urban areas is the outcome of a project co-sponsored by:Office for National Statistics (ONS);Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra);Office of the Deputy Prime Minister (now Communities and Local Government);Countryside Agency (CA); andNational Assembly for Wales (NAW).The classification was developed in 2004 by a consortium co-ordinated by Prof. John Shepherd from Birkbeck College. The technical work was lead by Peter Bibby of University of Sheffield and the project also involved the University of Glamorgan and Geowise. The rural and urban classification of Output Areas, Super Output Areas (this dataset) and Wards has been provided to enable datasets to be analysed according to the classification. This provides a powerful tool for the development and monitoring of rural and urban policies.Please Note: Super Output Areas do not have all the same codes as the OA level Dataset. For SOAs and Wards the classifications for ‘Villages, Hamlets and Isolated Dwellings’ have been combined.Similar procedures to those used to classify Output Areas apply to the classification for the 34,378 Lower Layer Super Output Areas in the dataset. However the morphological classification differs in the number of categories as very few LSOAs can be classified as predominantly dispersed settlements. LSOAs are categorised into just three domains: urban 10k, town and fringe and villages, hamlets and isolated dwellings, using the key below:2005 Rural and Urban morphology indicator1 - denotes predominantly urban >10k2 - denotes predominantly town and fringe3 - denotes other rural (including village, hamlet and isolated dwellings)2005 Rural and Urban context indicator0 - denotes less sparsely populated areas1 - denotes sparsely populated areas

The 2011 rural-urban classification (RUC) of lower layer super output areas in England and Wales is based on the 2011 RUC of output areas published in August 2013, and allows users to create a rural/urban view of LSOA level products. This product was sponsored by a cross-Government working group comprising Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, Department of the Communities and Local Government, Office for National Statistics and the Welsh Government. The classification at LSOA level is built from the RUC at OA level (the most detailed version of the classification). Assignments of LSOA to urban or rural categories are made by reference to the category to which the majority of their constituent OA are assigned (File Size 1.8MB).REST URL of Feature Access Service – https://services1.arcgis.com/ESMARspQHYMw9BZ9/arcgis/rest/services/Rural Urban Classification (2011) of Lower Layer Super Output Areas in England and Wales_new/FeatureServer

This is an exact fit lookup file between Lower layer Super Output Areas as at December 2011 and Lower layer Super Output Areas as at December 2021 and Local Authority Districts as at December 2022 in England and Wales. This product has been provided with a 'change indicator' field, that define the lookup between 2011 and 2021 LSOA. This field indicates which super output areas have changed between 2011 and 2021. This is a version 3 of the lookup where the Change Indicator has been changed from splits to complex in less than 10 LSOAs and four 2011 LSOAs - Shepway 014E to Shepway 014H corrected to Shepway 015A - Shepway 015DThere are four designated categories to describe the changes, and these are as follows:U - No Change from 2011 to 2021. This means that direct comparisons can be made between these 2011 and 2021 LSOA.S - Split. This means that the 2011 LSOA has been split into two or more 2021 LSOA. There will be one record for each of the 2021 LSOA that the 2011 LSOA has been split into. This means direct comparisons can be made between estimates for the single 2011 LSOA and the estimates from the aggregated 2021 LSOA.M - Merged. 2011 LSOA have been merged with another one or more 2011 LSOA to form a single 2021 LSOA. This means direct comparisons can be made between the aggregated 2011 LSOAs’ estimates and the single 2021 LSOA’s estimates. X - The relationship between 2011 and 2021 LSOA is irregular and fragmented. This has occurred where 2011 LSOA have been redesigned because of local authority district boundary changes, or to improve their social homogeneity. These can’t be easily mapped to equivalent 2021 LSOA like the regular splits (S) and merges (M), and therefore like for like comparisons of estimates for 2011 LSOA and 2021 LSOA are not possible.

This dataset provides Census 2021 estimates that classify usual residents in England and Wales by sex and single year of age. The estimates are as at Census Day, 21 March 2021.

The classifications for the datasets TS009 Sex by single year of age and RM200 Sex by single year of age (detailed) are the same. However, RM200 has data available at the lower geographies of:

• Lower layer Super Output Areas (LSOAs)
• Middle layer Super Output Areas (MSOAs)
• Electoral wards and divisions
• Westminster parliamentary constituencies

Estimates for single year of age between ages 90 and 100+ are less reliable than other ages. Estimation and adjustment at these ages was based on the age range 90+ rather than five-year age bands. Read more about this quality notice.

Area type

Census 2021 statistics are published for a number of different geographies. These can be large, for example the whole of England, or small, for example an output area (OA), the lowest level of geography for which statistics are produced.

For higher levels of geography, more detailed statistics can be produced. When a lower level of geography is used, such as output areas (which have a minimum of 100 persons), the statistics produced have less detail. This is to protect the confidentiality of people and ensure that individuals or their characteristics cannot be identified.

Coverage

Census 2021 statistics are published for the whole of England and Wales. Data are also available in these geographic types:

• country - for example, Wales
• region - for example, London
• local authority - for example, Cornwall
• health area – for example, Clinical Commissioning Group
• statistical area - for example, MSOA or LSOA

Age

A person’s age on Census Day, 21 March 2021 in England and Wales. Infants aged under 1 year are classified as 0 years of age.

Sex

This is the sex recorded by the person completing the census. The options were “Female” and “Male”.

A data set of a multicohort study of persons 70 years of age and over designed primarily to measure changes in the health, functional status, living arrangements, and health services utilization of two cohorts of Americans as they move into and through the oldest ages. The project is comprised of four surveys: * The 1984 Supplement on Aging (SOA) * The 1984-1990 Longitudinal Study of Aging (LSOA) * The 1994 Second Supplement on Aging (SOA II) * The 1994-2000 Second Longitudinal Study of Aging (LSOA II) The surveys, administered by the U.S. Census Bureau, provide a mechanism for monitoring the impact of proposed changes in Medicare and Medicaid and the accelerating shift toward managed care on the health status of the elderly and their patterns of health care utilization. SOA and SOA II were conducted as part of the in-person National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) of noninstitutionalized elderly people aged 55 years and over living in the United States in 1984, and at least 70 years of age in 1994, respectively. The 1984 SOA served as the baseline for the LSOA, which followed all persons who were 70 years of age and over in 1984 through three follow-up waves, conducted by telephone in 1986, 1988, and 1990. The SOA covered housing characteristics, family structure and living arrangements, relationships and social contracts, use of community services, occupation and retirement (income sources), health conditions and impairments, functional status, assistance with basic activities, utilization of health services, nursing home stays, and health opinions. Most of the questions from the SOA were repeated in the SOA II. Topics new to the SOA II included use of assistive devices and medical implants; health conditions and impairments; health behaviors; transportation; functional status, assistance with basic activities, unmet needs; utilization of health services; and nursing home stays. The major focus of the LSOA follow-up interviews was on functional status and changes that had occurred between interviews. Information was also collected on housing and living arrangements, contact with children, utilization of health services and nursing home stays, health insurance coverage, and income. LSOA II also included items on cognitive functioning, income and assets, family and childhood health, and more extensive health insurance information. The interview data are augmented by linkage to Medicare enrollment and utilization records, the National Death Index, and multiple cause-of-death records.
