English Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD)

Understanding IMD

The Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD) measures relative deprivation across England. It ranks all 32,844 Lower Layer Super Output Areas (LSOAs) from most deprived (rank 1) to least deprived (rank 32,844).

Key Points:

  • Lower rank = Higher deprivation (more challenging socioeconomic conditions)
  • Higher rank = Lower deprivation (better access to resources and opportunities)
  • Measures area-level deprivation, not individual circumstances
  • Combines 7 domains with different weights (Income & Employment are most important at 22.5% each)
