Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation (SIMD)

The Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation (SIMD) measures relative deprivation across Scotland. It ranks all 6,976 data zones from most deprived (rank 1) to least deprived (rank 6,976).
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 (Income & Employment have the most weight)
