District Deprivation Summary South Lakeland 2015 The Indices of Multiple Deprivation (IMD) The IMD are produced by the Department for Communities & Local Government (DCLG) to consider the unmet needs of small areas, known as Lower Super Output Areas (LSOAs), caused by a lack of resources of across seven domains: Income; Employment; Education Skills and Training; Health and Disability; Crime; Barriers to Housing and Services; and Living Environment. In addition to the above, there are two supplementary indices: The Income Deprivation Affecting Children Index (IDACI); and The Income Deprivation Affecting Older People Index (IDAOPI). Deprivation scores for each LSOA across all of the above domains are also combined to create an overall Index of Multiple Deprivation score and rank for each LSOA. When deprivation scores are combined for all LSOAs in South Lakeland, the district is classified as the least deprived district in Cumbria for overall deprivation and falls within the 25% least deprived nationally for overall deprivation. South Lakeland is also the 3rd least deprived district in England in terms of crime deprivation. However, the district falls within the 20% most deprived nationally in relation to living environment deprivation (ranked 45th). None of the LSOAs in South Lakeland rank within the 10% most deprived of areas in England for overall deprivation. Figure 1 plots each LSOA in the district shaded according to overall deprivation scores; areas shaded in red represent communities that are in the 10% most deprived of areas in England, while areas shaded in dark green represent communities that are in the 10% least deprived of areas in England. Ward boundaries are overlaid onto the LSOA data. There are 9 LSOAs which rank within the 10% most deprived areas of England in relation to Barriers to Housing & Services, these fall within the wards of Lyth Valley, Hawkshead, Coniston, Low Furness & Swarthmoor, Staveley-in-Cartmel, Crooklands, Lakes Grasmere, Whinfell, and Sedbergh.
