IMD - Living Environment Deprivation (2010) - per cent (76) Metric type
- Help text
- Based on the indices of multiple deprivation (IMD) this measure shows the proportion of an authority's population living in the most deprived lower super output areas (LSOAs) in the country. LSOAs are small fixed geographic areas encompassing a population of approximately 1,000 people. In this measure, all of the people living in the 10% most deprived LSOAs in England are captured in the numerator, plus a proportion of the population of those LSOAs in the next two deciles on a sliding scale - that is 95% of the population of the LSOA at the 11th percentile, and 5% of the population of the LSOA at the 29th percentile. This makes the cut-off point less abrupt for this measure than that adopted in the 2000 indices of deprivation. The aim of this measure is to portray how widespread high levels of deprivation are in an authority. It only includes authorities which contain LSOAs which fall within the most deprived 30% of LSOAs in England. Therefore some authorities do not have an overall score for this measure.
