Digital exclusion social factors: age - score (3887) Metric type
- Help text
- Age is a significant factor in the likelihood of an individual lacking Basic Digital Skills. The purpose of this metric is to identify which areas are potentially at risk of digital exclusion in relation to age specifically the percentage of the population over the age of 65 relative to other areas. The higher the score the more digitally excluded an area is likely to be.
Areas are assigned one of three scores: areas less than or equal to the bottom quintile (20%) value are assigned a score of 1, areas greater than the bottom quintile but less than the top quintile value are assigned a score of 2, areas greater than or equal to the top quintile are assigned a score of 3.
It has been produced by GoOnUK using data sourced from ONS' Mid-Year Population Estimates and is one of several sub-metrics used to determine an area's likelihood of being digitally excluded.
