Cost of Living Vulnerability Index (18158) Metric type

Help text
This is the Cost of Living Vulnerability total, which is a sum of poverty-based vulnerability and work-based vulnerability indicators for each local authority. A higher score indicates an area's relative risk of more people being pulled into poverty, and the relative risk of those who were already hard up being pushed into destitution.

The Centre for Progressive Policy (CPP) index is based on six separate rankings for local authorities in England:
(1) Fuel Poverty - Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy
(2) Food Insecurity - The University of Sheffield: Adult food insecurity
(3) Child Poverty - Loughborough University: Local indicators of child poverty after housing costs
(4) Claimant Count - Office for National Statistics
(5) Economic Inactivity - Office for National Statistics
(6) Low Pay - The Health Foundation: Proportion of low-paid jobs
