ONS mid-year estimates are modelled from the 2021 Census, births, deaths and migration. Mid-2022 is the revised series. Ages are grouped: 0-15 means ages 0 to 15 inclusive, working age 16-64, 65 and over. Change 2022-2024 compares the revised mid-2022 with mid-2024 estimates for the same boundaries. Scotland and Northern Ireland: mid-year estimates for council areas published by ONS from National Records of Scotland and NISRA (via Nomis), for 2022 to 2024, to match the England and Wales years. No small-area (ward or neighbourhood) estimates are held for them.

Sales are mapped from postcode to each geography exactly. The headline is the median sale price over the latest 12 COMPLETE months (a month is complete when national standard sales are at least 85% of the average of the 24 months before it; currently November 2024 to October 2025) and the 12 months before that. Months after that (Nov 2025 onward in the April 2026 extract) are still being registered and are excluded. Yearly medians use complete calendar years 2016-2024. Medians need at least 10 sales; sales counts are published for any area. Medians describe homes that sold, not all homes, and are not adjusted for the mix of property types, so a change in the median can reflect what was sold. Registration lags completion, so recent months can be revised up. Only standard price paid sales (category A) are included.

Number of dwellings on the council tax list in each valuation band A to H (I in Wales) at 31 March 2024. England bands use 1991 values and Wales 2003 values, so band shares are not comparable across the border. LSOA counts are split to output areas by population and rolled up as in the area apportioning method.

Percentages by output area are converted back to counts using the OA household total (or usual residents for health) and rolled up as in the area apportioning method, so area figures are household-weighted. England only: Welsh OAs are not in the loaded table, so Welsh and Scottish places have no value. Labelled 2021.

For each property (postcode, address and UPRN) the most recent certificate on the register is kept (the register extract). Certificates are only lodged when a home is built, sold, let or retrofitted, so the register covers a subset of homes and older certificates can be out of date. Ratings are counted by band A (most efficient) to G by postcode, then summed to each geography. Treat as the mix among certificated homes, not all homes.

The Indices of Deprivation rank every LSOA in England; decile 1 contains the most deprived 10 per cent of LSOAs nationally. Ranks and deciles are ordinal, so they are never averaged. An area is described by (1) how many of its LSOAs fall in each national decile, (2) how many of its residents live in LSOAs of each decile (mid-2024 population apportioned to output areas, see the area apportioning method), (3) the share of residents in the most deprived 10 and 20 per cent of LSOAs nationally, and (4) the median decile of residents. IoD is a relative measure of small areas, not of individuals: most people in a deprived LSOA are not deprived and many deprived people live elsewhere. England only. Where an area straddles the England-Wales border the figures cover the English part only and are not published unless 90 per cent of residents are covered.

Each feature is a yes/no flag at the postcode point, so figures are the SHARE of POSTCODES in the area with that feature, not the share of people or homes. Flood zone shares use Environment Agency flood zones 2 and 3 (river and sea, England; not surface water). Station distance is straight line from the postcode centre to the nearest NaPTAN rail station (RLY access area) or metro/tram/underground station (MET); the station distance column in the postcode feature table was found to be wrong (Cambridge about 19 km) and is not used. Full fibre is the Ofcom coverage flag for the postcode. Only areas where at least 80% of live postcodes have a feature row are published; England only.

OS Open Greenspace sites (parks, playing fields, play spaces, allotments, cemeteries, religious grounds and sports facilities) are assigned to the area of the nearest live postcode to the site's centre, so a large park is counted wholly in one area. Hectares are the site polygon area. Some sites are not open to the public (private sports facilities, cemeteries). Per 1,000 residents uses the mid-2024 population (England and Wales).

Active, non-dormant CQC-registered locations placed by postcode. Ratings are the latest overall rating published for the location; "Not yet rated" includes locations never inspected, with insufficient evidence, or with no overall rating. Care home beds are the registered capacity, summed, and divided by residents aged 65 and over. Ratings describe services, not residents.

Counts of crimes in police.uk street-level data for May 2025 to April 2026, matched to 2021 LSOAs by the LSOA code on each record, then split to output areas by population and rolled up (see the area apportioning method). Rates are crimes per 1,000 residents (mid-2024 population) and describe where crimes were recorded, not who committed them or where victims live. High rates occur where many non-residents pass through (town centres, transport hubs, nightlife), so they are not a measure of risk to residents. Crimes with no location (blank LSOA) are excluded; the excluded share by force is in the notes. Greater Manchester Police data are absent from the extract, so those areas have no value. Categories follow police.uk. Anti-social behaviour is incident data, not crime proper, and is included only in the "all categories" rate. 12 months only: no trend is possible and seasonal effects are included.

A charity is placed by the postcode of its registered/contact address (or the nearest postcode to its geocoded address; some are placed by the nearest postcode to a geocoded address), so counts show where charities are based, not where they work: a national charity with a London address is counted in London. Income is the latest annual income on the register, summed; it is dominated by a few very large charities. "Declaring the area" counts charities that name the local authority (or its county) as an area of operation on the register; it does not mean services are delivered everywhere in that area. Registered charities only; unregistered community groups, small charities below the registration threshold and removed charities are not counted.

Points tagged in OpenStreetMap (pubs, libraries, pharmacies and so on) are assigned to the area of the nearest live postcode (within about 3 km). OSM is volunteer-mapped, so counts are indicative: differences between areas can reflect mapping effort. Per 1,000 residents uses mid-2024 population (England and Wales). Data (c) OpenStreetMap contributors, ODbL 1.0.

Usual residents by five-year age band on Census Day (21 March 2021). Labelled 2021; not comparable year-on-year with mid-year estimates without care. Children are 0-14 here because the published bands are five years wide.
