- Help text
- The main IMD summary measure. It is a weighted average of the seven IMD domains: Income Deprivation, Employment Deprivation, Health Deprivation and Disability, Education Skills and Training Deprivation, Barriers to Housing and Services, Living Environment Deprivation, and Crime. Extent is a local authority level measure which represents the proportion of an authority's population living in the most deprived LSOAs in the country. This is a weighted measure of the population in the most deprived 30 per cent of all areas: the population living in the most deprived 10 per cent of LSOAs in England receive a 'weight' of 1.0; the population living in the most deprived 11 to 30 per cent of LSOAs receive a sliding weight, ranging from 0.95 for those in the eleventh percentile, to 0.05 for those in the thirtieth percentile. The more deprived is an area, the higher the IMD score but the lower the rank.
