Deprivation Indices
Description
This method provides statistics on relative deprivation in England, Wales, and Scotland, including the Indices of Multiple Deprivation (IMD) - both the total index and domain-specific indices - as well as area ratings based on IMD and deprivation domains.
Indices of deprivation measure relative deprivation in small areas across England, Wales, and Scotland (Lower-layer Super Output Areas (LSOAs) in England and Wales, and "data zones" in Scotland). The IMD, the most commonly used index, encompasses various deprivation domains, which vary by country.
The data covers the years 2019 (for England and Wales) and 2020 (for Scotland).
