SOAs have a minimum population of 1,000 and a mean population of 1,500. Key: Ranked within top 10% most deprived areas nationally Ranked within top 10-20% most deprived areas nationally Ranked within top 20-30% most deprived areas nationally The Index of Multiple Deprivation 2007 (IMD 2007) is a Lower layer Super Output Area (LSOA) measure of multiple deprivation. The IMD is made up of seven LSOA level domain indices, each of which measures a different aspect of deprivation (income, employment, health, education & skills, barriers to housing & services, crime and living environment.) There are also two supplementary indices (Income Deprivation Affecting Children and Income Deprivation Affecting Older People). There are 32,482 SOAs in England and 333 SOAs in Warwickshire. Each SOA is ranked according to its relative level of deprivation based upon a score generated from a number of different indicators. Low ranks denote greater levels of relative deprivation. A ranking of 1 represents the most deprived SOA nationally and a ranking of 32,482 represents the least deprived SOA nationally. The areas are ranked either within the top 10,20 or 30% most deprived nationally.
