The Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation (SIMD) identifies small area concentrations of multiple deprivation across all of Scotland, in ‘datazones’ (areas with populations between 500-1000). This is measured by considering several different types of deprivation (see the list above). In an area like Angus, with small towns and rural areas, poverty and deprivation is likely to be more dispersed than in urban areas and therefore less likely to be highlighted in SIMD.

Not everyone in an area of multiple deprivation is deprived, just as not every deprived person in Angus lives in an area identified by SIMD.
