Summary statistics from Indices of Multiple Deprivation (IMD). The [spreadsheet](https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/londondatastore-upload/indices-of-multiple-deprivation-borough.xls) includes borough data from 2000, 2004 and 2007. The latest Indices of Deprivation data for 2010 can be found [here](/datastore/package/indices-deprivation-2010). The Index of Multiple Deprivation 2007 combines a number of indicators, chosen to cover a range of economic, social and housing issues, into a single deprivation score for each small area in England. This allows each area to be ranked relative to one another according to their level of deprivation. Local Concentration is the population weighted average of the ranks of a district’s most deprived LSOAs that contain exactly 10% of the local authority district’s population. Extent is the proportion of a local authority district’s population living in the most deprived LSOAs in the country. Income Scale is the number of people who are Income deprived. Employment Scale is the number of people who are Employment deprived. Average of LSOA Ranks is the population weighted average of the combined ranks for the LSOAs in a local authority district.
