FACTS & FIGURES ABOUT HEREFORDSHIRE: THREE ELMS WARD PROFILE The aim of this profile is to draw together useful information about a particular area of Herefordshire, and how it compares to the county overall. It is hoped that it will help users build a picture of the area, and provide evidence that can be used for a range of purposes, including funding bids, strategy documents, business plans and school projects.

Ward Area Profile Three Elms Ward LOWER SUPER OUTPUT AREAS (LSOAS) AND PARISHES WITHIN THREE ELMS WARD W W W W W W W W W W W W W W Data has traditionally been available for administrative wards, but these aren't really W suitable for statistics as they vary widely in population size and boundaries can change W frequently. The Office for National Statistics (ONS) used the 2001 Census to define statistical geographies (lower super output areas) of about 1,500 people. Wherever possible information for LSOAs in the ward is presented in this profile along with the ward as a whole. If this data is not available or numbers are too small, ward-level only is given. LSOAs nest into Herefordshire's current wards, and usually follow civil parish boundaries - although some rural LSOAs cover several parishes. The map shows how the LSOA and parish boundaries relate to the ward. The table below lists all LSOAs (named by the Research Team) within the ward, and which parish(es) they cover.
