The Welsh Index of Multiple Deprivation 2011: Child Index is the official measure of relative deprivation for small areas in Wales for children. 2. Each domain is based on a range of different indicators, which are weighted and combined to provide domain scores and the overall child index. Income accounts for 35.3% of the total Index score, Health and Education 17.1% each, Access to Services 12.2%, and Housing, Physical Environment and Community Safety 6.1% each. 3. The housing domain and the geographical access to services domain were not updated in 2011, because new data was not available. The 2009 ranks for these domains were used to construct the 2011 Child Index. 4. A summary of the methodological changes in the 2011 Child Index is available on the WIMD and Child Index web pages via the link below:
