These statistics update the English indices of deprivation 2015.
The English indices of deprivation measure relative deprivation in small areas in England called lower-layer super output areas. The index of multiple deprivation is the most widely used of these indices.
The statistical release and FAQ document (above) explain how the Indices of Deprivation 2019 (IoD2019) and the Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD2019) can be used and expand on the headline points in the infographic. Both documents also help users navigate the various data files and guidance documents available.
The first data file contains the IMD2019 ranks and deciles and is usually sufficient for the purposes of most users.
Mapping resources and links to the IoD2019 explorer and Open Data Communities platform can be found on our IoD2019 mapping resource page.
Further detail is available in the research report, which gives detailed guidance on how to interpret the data and presents some further findings, and the technical report, which describes the methodology and quality assurance processes underpinning the indices.
We have also published supplementary outputs covering England and Wales.
This dataset contains a range of measures which form the Indices of Deprivation 2015 at LSOA level. The boundaries used have been generalised by 50 metres (point remove) for web display. This dataset has been curated mainly for education/teaching purposes. The Index of Multiple Deprivation ranks every small area in England from 1 (most deprived area) to 32,844 (least deprived area). It is common to describe how relatively deprived a small area is by saying whether it falls among the most deprived 10 per cent, 20 per cent or 30 per cent of small areas in England (although there is no definitive cut-off at which an area is described as ādeprivedā). To help with this, deprivation ādecilesā are published alongside ranks. This dataset has been published to show the show the IMD Ranks and Deciles for each LSOA for Education purposes. The Indices of Deprivation 2015 provide a set of relative measures of deprivation for small areas (Lower-layer Super Output Areas*) across England, based on seven domains of deprivation. The domains were combined using the following weights to produce the overall Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD):Income Deprivation (22.5%) Employment Deprivation (22.5%) Education, Skills and Training Deprivation (13.5%) Health Deprivation and Disability (13.5%) Crime (9.3%) Barriers to Housing and Services (9.3%) Living Environment Deprivation (9.3%). Please refer to this web page from Department for Communities and Local Government for more information on the dataset.

The Department of Communities and Local Government (DCLG) has released the English Indices of Deprivation 2015 (ID2015), which updates the 2010 indices of the same name. The indices are combined together to form the composite Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD).
The IMD measures relative deprivation across small areas of England called Lower Super Output Areas (LSOAs). Datasets come from 2015, 2010 and 2007. Whilst historical datasets can be compared, there are caveats:
⢠LSOA definitions have changed between the 2015 and 2010 releases. As such, some locations will not be comparable at all.
⢠The variables used to define each indices of deprivation have been updated with each publication. As such, changes in apparent deprivation may reflect these changes in methodology rather than actual changes in local circumstance.
Compared to 2010, four out of the five Cambridgeshire districts now rank as more deprived nationally; Cambridge City ranks as less deprived.
Cambridgeshire now (in IMD 2015) has 16 LSOAs in the 20% most deprived nationally ā this is compared to 9 in 2010. Two are in Cambridge City, two are in Huntingdonshire and 12 are in Fenland. Four Fenland LSOAs are in the 10% most deprived nationally.
As with 2007 and 2010, Fenland has the highest levels of deprivation in Cambridgeshire, followed by Cambridge City, East Cambridgeshire, Huntingdonshire then South Cambridgeshire.

The latest Indices of Deprivation data for 2010 can be found here.
The Index of Multiple Deprivation 2007 combines a number of indicators, chosen to cover a range of economic, social and housing issues, into a single deprivation score for each small area in England. This allows each area to be ranked relative to one another according to their level of deprivation.
Local Concentration is the population weighted average of the ranks of a districtās most deprived LSOAs that contain exactly 10% of the local authority districtās population.
Extent is the proportion of a local authority districtās population living in the most deprived LSOAs in the country.
Income Scale is the number of people who are Income deprived.
Employment Scale is the number of people who are Employment deprived.
Average of LSOA Ranks is the population weighted average of the combined ranks for the LSOAs in a local authority district.

This dataset provides detailed information on the 2019 Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD) for Birmingham, UK. The data is available at the postcode level and includes the Lower Layer Super Output Area (LSOA) information.Data is provided at the LSOA 2011 Census geography.The decile score ranges from 1-10 with decile 1 representing the most deprived 10% of areas while decile 10 representing the least deprived 10% of areas.The IMD rank and decile score is allocated to the LSOA and all postcodes within it at the time of creation (2019).Note that some postcodes cross over LSOA boundaries. The Office for National Statistics sets boundaries for LSOAs and allocates every postcode to one LSOA only: this is the one which contains the majority of residents in that postcode area (as at 2011 Census).
The English Indices of Deprivation 2019 provide a comprehensive measure of relative deprivation in small areas across England. The Income Deprivation dataset is a key component of this index, capturing the proportion of the population experiencing deprivation due to low income. This dataset includes indicators such as the number of people receiving income support, jobseeker's allowance, and other income-related benefits. It is used to identify areas with high levels of income deprivation, informing policy decisions and resource allocation to address socio-economic inequalities.

About the indices of deprivationThe English indices of deprivation measure relative deprivation in small areas in England. The index of multiple deprivation is the most widely used of these indices.The updated index of multiple deprivation (IMD) was published by the Department of Communities and Local Government (CLG) on 30 September 2015.The IMD brings together data covering seven different aspects or ādomainsā of deprivation into a weighted overall index for each Lower-layer Super Output Area (LSOA) in England. The scores are then used to rank the LSOAs nationally and to calculate an IMD score for each local authority area. Local authorities are then ranked by their IMD score. The IMD presents a ranking of relative deprivation between and within local authorities in England. It is not a measure of affluence in an area, nor an absolute measure of how much more or less deprived an area is compared to another.The domains used in calculating the index are: Income; Employment; Education, Skills and Training; Health Deprivation and Disability; Crime; Barriers to Housing and Services; Living Environment. There are also two supplementary domains - Income Deprivation Affecting Children Index (IDACI) and Income Deprivation Affecting Older People (IDAOPI).LSOAs are a geographical unit which has an average of 1,500 residents and 650 households. They were developed following the 2001 census, through the aggregation of smaller census output areas, to create areas with a reasonably compact shape and which were socially similar (assessed through housing type). Around one percent of LSOAs were changed following the 2011 Census in order to maintain the characteristics described above. There are now 32,844 LSOAs in England. Leicester now has 192 LSOAs.Leicester IMDLeicester is ranked 21st most deprived in IMD 2015 out of 326 local authorities, compared with 25th in the 2010 Index.Leicester is ranked within the 10% most deprived local authorities in EnglandCompared to England, Leicester has almost double the population living in the two fifths (40%) most deprived LSOAās in the country. 76% of Leicesterās population, compared with only 40% of Englandās, live in the 40% most deprived LSOAs in the country.A full report on deprivation in Leicester can be found on the Leicester City Council website here: https://www.leicester.gov.uk/your-council/policies-plans-and-strategies/health-and-social-care/data-reports-information/
Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation (SIMD) 2020 rankings, with the two Output Zones relevant to OAL-UK highlighted (S01006819 and S01006817). SIMD compiles statistics on population, working age population, income, employment, health, education, housing, access and crime and displays the information as deciles. 1st Decile SIMD rank = top 10% most deprived areas in Scotland; 10th Decile SIMD rank = top 10% least deprived areas in Scotland. OAL-UK is in an area of low deprivation with rankings in all categories being 7/8/9/10th Decile with the exception of "Access" for which OAL-UK is 1st Decile due to its rurality. The Scottish Government provides SIMD data in map format at https://simd.scot/#/simd2020/BTTTFTT/9/-4.0000/55.9000/
This dataset is published as Open Data and is a like-for-like extract from the Scottish Government's publication, filtered to the 121 datazones within the Stirling Council area, with the addition of SAPE 2021 figures. We have published other SIMD datasets, maps, and applications also available as Open Data.The Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation is a relative measure of deprivation across 6,976 small areas (called data zones). If an area is identified as ādeprivedā, this can relate to people having a low income but it can also mean fewer resources or opportunities. SIMD looks at the extent to which an area is deprived across seven domains: income, employment, education, health, access to services, crime and housing.SIMD is the Scottish Government's standard approach to identify areas of multiple deprivation in Scotland. It can help improve understanding about the outcomes and circumstances of people living in the most deprived areas in Scotland. It can also allow effective targeting of policies and funding where the aim is to wholly or partly tackle or take account of area concentrations of multiple deprivation.SIMD ranks data zones from most deprived (ranked 1) to least deprived (ranked 6,976). People using SIMD will often focus on the data zones below a certain rank, for example, the 5%, 10%, 15% or 20% most deprived data zones in Scotland.SIMD is an area-based measure of relative deprivation: not every person in a highly deprived area will themselves be experiencing high levels of deprivation.Data zones in rural areas tend to cover a large land area and reflect a more mixed picture of people experiencing different levels of deprivation. This means that SIMD is less helpful at identifying the smaller pockets of deprivation found in more rural areas, compared to the larger pockets found in urban areas. SIMD domain indicators can still be useful in rural areas if analysed separately from urban data zones or combined with other data.Please note that the Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation 2020 has been revised as a result of a problem identified with the income domain ranks provided by the Department for Work and Pensions. This revision only affects the income domain ranks and overall SIMD ranks (referred to as SIMD 2020v2). The impact is minimal for the majority of data zones, and the remainder of the SIMD 2020 is not affected. SIMD 2020v2 ranks should now be used when carrying out any analyses.https://www.gov.scot/collections/scottish-index-of-multiple-deprivation-2020/

This release provides insights into self-reported health in England and Wales in 2021, broken down by age and sex. Key findings are presented at country, regional and local authority level. Additional analyses compare general health to the 2011 Census and examines the relationship between deprivation and health at a national decile (England) or quintile (Wales) level can be found here.
In 2021 and 2011, people were asked āHow is your health in general?ā. The response options were:
Age specific percentage
Age-specific percentages are estimates of disability prevalence in each age group, and are used to allow comparisons between specified age groups. Further information is in the glossary.
Age-standardised percentage
Age-standardised percentages are estimates of disability prevalence in the population, across all age groups. They allow for comparison between populations over time and across geographies, as they account for differences in the population size and age structure. Further information is in the glossary.
Details on usage of Age-standardised percentage can be found here
Count
The count is the number of usual residents by general health status from very good to very bad, sex, age group and geographic breakdown. To ensure that individuals cannot be identified in the data, counts and populations have been rounded to the nearest 5, and counts under 10 have not been included..
General health
A person's assessment of the general state of their health from very good to very bad. This assessment is not based on a person's health over any specified period of time.
Index of Multiple Deprivation and Welsh Index of Multiple Deprivation
National deciles and quintiles of area deprivation are created through ranking small geographical populations known as Lower layer Super Output Areas (LSOAs), based on their deprivation score from most to least deprived. They are then grouped into 10 (deciles) or 5 (quintiles) divisions based on the subsequent ranking. We have used the 2019 IMD and WIMD because this is the most up-to-date version at the time of publishing.
Population
The population is the number of usual residents of each sex, age group and geographic breakdown. To ensure that individuals cannot be identified in the data, counts and populations have been rounded to the nearest 5, and counts under 10 have not been included.
Usual resident
For Census 2021, a usual resident of the UK is anyone who, on census day, was in the UK and had stayed or intended to stay in the UK for a period of 12 months or more or had a permanent UK address and was outside the UK and intended to be outside the UK for less than 12 months.

Summary measures at ward level of the Indices of Deprivation (ID) 2007. NOTE: The ward summary for ID2010 can be found on the ID2010 page. The Government's Indices of Deprivation are produced for small areas across England. Summary measures of the Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD) are published for local authorities. This dataset gives GLA calculations giving, as far as possible, comparable summary measures for wards in London. It also includes GLA calculations giving the two supplementary indices at ward level. The purpose is to replicate, as far as possible, the local authority level measures published by CLG and gives alternative and additional measures, including a ward level version of the Income Deprivation Affecting Children Index (IDACI) and the Income Deprivation Affecting Older People Index (IDAOPI). The scores and ranks within London are given, with a rank of 1 denoting the most deprived out of a total of 628 wards in London, with the City of London grouped into four areas, only the first ward of which is named. The ward level summary measures replicating those at LA level produced here are: -Average of SOA Scores -Average of SOA Ranks -Extent -The Income Scale -The Employment Scale The LA level Concentration measure cannot be sensibly reproduced at ward level, since it is based on ten per cent of the areaās population, which is in most cases less than a single SOA. Instead, a summary measure Highest ranked SOA in ward has been included. Additionally, this Briefing includes the total number of SOAs in each ward and gives a count of how many SOAs are included among the more deprived areas in England. Four such counts are given ā the five per cent most deprived, ten per cent, 20 per cent and 50 per cent, or above average.

On 1 April 2025 responsibility for fire and rescue transferred from the Home Office to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government.
This information covers fires, false alarms and other incidents attended by fire crews, and the statistics include the numbers of incidents, fires, fatalities and casualties as well as information on response times to fires. The Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG) also collect information on the workforce, fire prevention work, health and safety and firefighter pensions. All data tables on fire statistics are below.
MHCLG has responsibility for fire services in England. The vast majority of data tables produced by the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government are for England but some (0101, 0103, 0201, 0501, 1401) tables are for Great Britain split by nation. In the past the Department for Communities and Local Government (who previously had responsibility for fire services in England) produced data tables for Great Britain and at times the UK.

These statistics update the English indices of deprivation 2015.
The English indices of deprivation measure relative deprivation in small areas in England called lower-layer super output areas. The index of multiple deprivation is the most widely used of these indices.
The statistical release and FAQ document (above) explain how the Indices of Deprivation 2019 (IoD2019) and the Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD2019) can be used and expand on the headline points in the infographic. Both documents also help users navigate the various data files and guidance documents available.
The first data file contains the IMD2019 ranks and deciles and is usually sufficient for the purposes of most users.
Mapping resources and links to the IoD2019 explorer and Open Data Communities platform can be found on our IoD2019 mapping resource page.
Further detail is available in the research report, which gives detailed guidance on how to interpret the data and presents some further findings, and the technical report, which describes the methodology and quality assurance processes underpinning the indices.
We have also published supplementary outputs covering England and Wales.
