The English Indices of Deprivation 2015

Briefing Note – November 2015

KEY MESSAGES:

North Somerset Council ranked as the 121st most deprived district out of 326 districts.

North Somerset was the district with the 3rd highest inequality, as measured by the range in national ranking between the most and least deprived LSOAs in the district.

North Somerset had 5 LSOAs within the most deprived 5% in England, all within South or Central wards of Weston-super-Mare.

There were 11 LSOAs within the least deprived 5% in England and these were spread across the district.

The more relatively deprived LSOAs in IMD 2010 had generally become more relatively deprived and these were located in Weston-super-Mare.

And note that:

Deprivation indices are relative to the rest of England, not absolute.

The indices are a measure of relative deprivation, not affluence.

The index of multiple deprivation is different from poverty, which is focussed on the availability of financial resources.

IMD 2015 used data from 2012/13.

The indicators used in IMD 2015 are very similar to those used in IMD 2010,

but there are some differences, making comparisons approximate.

BACKGROUND

The English Indices of Deprivation 2015, which include the Index of Multiple

Deprivation (IMD), were released at the end of September 2015 and updated the

previously published 2010 indices. The IMD 2015 provided a relative ranking of

areas across England according to their levels of deprivation, derived from a set of

37 indicators. These indicators were organised into seven domains of deprivation:

Income, Employment, Education, Health & Disability, Crime, Barriers to Housing and

Services and Living Environment. These were weighted and combined to create the

index of multiple deprivation. Appendix 1 provides details of the indicators, domain

weightings and any changes since IMD 2010. The data used by the Department for

Communities and Local Government (DCLG) for the IMD 2015 were mainly from

2012/13 and so are a historical view to an extent.

The IMD 2015 compared the 32,844 Lower Super Output Areas (LSOAs) across

England, of which there were 135 in North Somerset. Each LSOA has a population

of approximately 1,500 and, in order to maintain this population size, the Office for

National Statistics (ONS) periodically changes the boundaries of LSOAs. The ONS

split 6 of North Somerset’s LSOAs into a total of 17 new LSOAs for the 2011

National Census. This means that some LSOAs cannot be compared between IMD

2010 and IMD 2015.

The relative position of a LSOA is indicated by its ranking nationally and a more

easily used indicator can be obtained by converting this rank into a percentile. The

most deprived LSOAs will have a percentile near 0% and the least deprived LSOAs

will have a percentile near 100%. The national quartile into which each LSOA in

North Somerset falls is shown on the map on the next page.

DEPRIVATION AT A DISTRICT LEVEL

The key measure selected by the DCLG to describe relative deprivation among local

authorities was the proportion of a local authority’s LSOAs that were in the most

deprived decile (bands of 10%) nationally. If deprivation was spread evenly, then

each local authority would have 10% of its LSOAs in the most deprived decile.

In IMD 2015 127 of the 326 districts (39%) did not have any LSOAs in the most

deprived decile nationally and, at the other extreme, there were five districts that had

between 40% and 50% of their LSOAs in this decile (Middlesbrough, Knowsley,

Kingston upon Hull, Liverpool and Manchester). North Somerset had 6.7% of its

LSOAs in the most deprived decile, making it the 121st most deprived district. On

this measure, Bristol was 55th most deprived, BANES was 192nd and South

Gloucestershire was 200th. The district level measures published by the DCLG tend

to show North Somerset’s ranking declining very slightly between IMD 2010 and IMD

2015.

In IMD 2010, North Somerset had 7.2% (9) of its LSOAs in the most deprived decile

and the apparent improvement to 6.7% in IMD 2015 was due to the splitting of other

LSOAs. The same 9 LSOAs remained in the most deprived national decile.

The 20 most deprived districts in England were largely the same as found in IMD

2010. However, the London Boroughs of Hackney, Tower Hamlets, Newham and

Haringey became relatively less deprived and no longer featured in this list.

When the seven domains of deprivation are considered individually at a district level,

North Somerset ranks out of 326 districts as follows for the proportion of LSOAs in

the most deprived 10% nationally:

Employment 88th most employment deprived district

Health 96th

Income 107th

Living Environment 170th

Education, Skills & Training 180th

Crime 181st

Barriers to Housing and Services 192nd

There are also two supplementary income related indices directed specifically at

children and older people respectively. North Somerset’s ranking of the proportion of

LSOAs in the most deprived 10% nationally on these was:

Income Deprivation Affecting Children Index 117th

Income Deprivation Affecting Older People Index 120th

INEQUALITY

Inequality, as measured by the range in national ranking between the most and least

deprived LSOAs in a district, is likely to have increased in North Somerset. IMD

2015 shows North Somerset as having the 3rd largest range in England out of the

326 districts, up from 7th in IMD 2010, which used slightly different methodology.

The table below shows the 10 districts with the highest inequality.

The table below shows the rankings on this inequality measure of our neighbouring

unitary councils.

MOST DEPRIVED AREAS WITHIN NORTH SOMERSET

In North Somerset there were 5 LSOAs within the most deprived 5% of LSOAs

nationally in IMD 2015, one fewer than in IMD 2010 (slightly different methodology).

All were within the South and Central wards of Weston-super-Mare and two of these

on the Bournville Estate were within the most deprived 1% nationally. One LSOA

(Alfred Street, Weston-super-Mare Central) was in the bottom decile for 6 out of the

7 domains of deprivation.

The LSOA that was no longer in the most deprived 5% was Ellenborough Park,

Weston-super-Mare Central, which had a percentage ranking of 7% in IMD 2015.

What does this mean in terms of numbers of people?

The Income Deprivation and Employment Deprivation domains are rates of the

population experiencing this type of deprivation. The indicators in these domains are

constructed as non-overlapping counts and are simply summed together to identify

the total numbers of people experiencing the type of deprivation. There have been

some changes to the indicators behind these domains between IMD 2010 and IMD

2015, but the DCLG attempted to keep them as comparable as possible over time

[see Appendix 1]. New initiatives, such as Work Capability Assessments, will have

affected indicator values.

The next table shows that the numbers of income deprived people included in the

IMD have increased in two of the most deprived LSOAs since IMD 2010, but have

remained static or have decreased slightly in the other three LSOAs. The numbers

of employment deprived individuals in the IMD have increased in all five of the

LSOAs.

Page 13: The English Indices of Deprivation 2015 Briefing Note ...

NORTH SOMERSET COUNCIL BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE SERVICE

Page 13

More up-to-date data shows that the number of claimants of Job Seekers Allowance

or Universal Credit in these 5 LSOAs decreased by 49% between January 2013 and

January 2015 and the most recent data1 (October 2015) shows a further decrease.

The same pattern occurred in North Somerset and England, which saw decreases of

58% and 47% respectively between January 2013 and January 2015.

The indicator values available within the other domains are not simple counts of

individuals, but it is nevertheless possible to make comparisons between IMD 2015

and IMD 2010 for some of their constituent indicators. The proportion of young

people staying on in post-16 education increased in the four most deprived LSOAs,

only decreasing in W-s-M South Windwhistle, whereas the proportion of young

people entering higher education decreased in all 5 of the most deprived LSOAs.

There was a mixed picture among the values of the two indicators unaffected by

benefits/allowances in the health domain (‘years of potential life lost’ and ‘acute

morbidity’). The values of both indicators deteriorated for W-s-M Central Grand Pier

and W-s-M South Windwhistle between IMD 2010 and IMD 2015, whereas the other

3 LSOAs improved on one indicator and deteriorated on the other.

Percentiles by Domain for the most deprived LSOAs and changes in ranking

based on IMD 2010 and IMD 2015 definitions

The IMD 2015 relative ranking percentiles in each domain for the most deprived

LSOAs are shown in the table below, along with colour coding to show whether

these rankings have improved or declined. The crime domain shows apparent

improvements in ranking since IMD 2010, but the comparisons suggest the four main

domains of income, employment, education and health have declined in their relative

positions in most cases.

LEAST DEPRIVED AREAS

There were 11 North Somerset LSOAs in the least deprived 5% of LSOAs nationally

and these were spread across the district. Three of these were in Nailsea, two were

in Portishead and the rest were: Church Town in Backwell, the area around Dial Hill

in Clevedon, part of North Worle in Weston-super-Mare, part of Easton-in-Gordano,

the East of Winscombe and Claverham/Cleeve.

DEPRIVATION LEVEL OF AREAS IN WHICH CHILDREN AND OLDER PEOPLE

LIVE

Overall, 26% of the North Somerset population lived in one of the most deprived half

of LSOAs nationally and 74% lived in one of the least deprived half of LSOAs, at the

time for which the data was current (2012). A very slightly smaller proportion (25%)

of both children (aged 0-15) and older people (aged 60 and over) lived in the most

deprived half of LSOAs.

The LSOAs in the most deprived decile contained 7% of the total North Somerset

population. This included 7% of all children (2,416) and 6% of all older people

(3,269). The numbers and percentages of children, older people and the total

population in each deprivation decile are shown in Appendix 4.

CHANGES IN RANKING OF LSOAS BETWEEN IMD 2010 AND IMD 2015

Comparing IMD 2015 against IMD 2010 for the 118 LSOAs with boundaries that did

not change suggests that 46% (54) improved their relative positions nationally and

54% (64) declined in their relative positions. For the new LSOAs created by splitting

previous LSOAs, 8 improved their relative positions compared to the position of the

parent LSOA and 9 declined. However, comparisons should be treated with caution

due to changes in methodology.

In general, the more deprived LSOAs in IMD 2010 declined in their relative positions

and the least deprived improved to a small extent in their positions. This pattern was

also observed previously when IMD 2010 was compared to the 2007 version.

The charts on the next page show the IMD 2010 percentile for a LSOA on the

horizontal axis and its IMD 2015 percentile on the vertical axis. If the national

percentile ranking for a LSOA was the same in IMD 2015 as it had been in IMD 2010

then the marker for that LSOA would sit on the line. If the ranking in IMD 2015 was

higher (better) than in IMD 2010 then the marker would sit above the line and

conversely, if the ranking in IMD 2015 was lower, then the marker would sit below

the line.

The charts suggest that a small majority of Weston-super-Mare and Nailsea &

Backwell LSOAs have declined in their rankings, although Nailsea & Backwell

remains with overall low relative deprivation. Clevedon contains approximately equal

numbers of LSOAs that have improved in their rankings and that have declined in

their rankings and the same is true for Portishead and Rural/Other areas.

The subsequent bar chart highlights those LSOAs that appear to have changed their

ranking by over 8 percentage points between IMD 2010 and IMD 2015. Nine LSOAs

declined and five LSOAs improved by this amount. On looking at changes in each of

the domains of deprivation for the LSOAs that apparently declined 8 or more

percentiles, a common feature is a relative decline in the health domain. Within this

domain the indicator ‘Years of potential life lost’ has worsened for most of these nine

LSOAs and contributed to the relative decline.

The longer-term changes can be seen in the chart below, which shows the

percentages of North Somerset LSOAs contained within each of the national

quartiles over the last 15 years. Both of the quartiles with higher deprivation have

grown, from a combined total of 15% in IMD 2000 to 26% in IMD 2015. Although

increasing, this remains better than the national average which is fixed at 50%.

The changes to LSOA boundaries between IMD 2010 and IMD 2015 have kept the

increases in the percentages of LSOAs in the most deprived two quartiles to 1%

each. This is because the LSOAs that had experienced significant population growth

and consequently were split were predominantly in areas of low deprivation. For

example, the number of LSOAs in the most deprived quartile increased from 15 to 18

between IMD 2010 and IMD 2015 and none of these LSOAs had been affected by

splitting. The total of 18 would have represented 14.5% of North Somerset’s 124

LSOAs in IMD 2010, but actually represented 13.3% of the 135 LSOAs in IMD 2015.

2010 and between IMD 2010 and IMD 2015 is shown in Appendix 3.

ISSUE WITH COMPARING BETWEEN IMD 2010 AND IMD 2015 FOR NORTH

SOMERSET IN PARTICULAR

The real change on the ground between the period IMD 2010 relates to and the

period IMD 2015 relates to is likely to have been less than the previous section

suggested, because IMD 2010 is likely to have underestimated deprivation within

North Somerset. The ONS produces mid-year population estimates using

methodology based on the last national census and combines this with data

available on births, deaths, migration etc. The 2010 mid-year population estimate for

North Somerset turned out to be almost 5% higher than the subsequent 2011

national census total, suggesting the ONS population estimation methodology had

not worked particularly well for North Somerset.

A number of the indicators within IMD are based on the number of individuals known

to be in a deprivation group in an area, divided by the total number of individuals in

that area, to give a percentage. If the total number of individuals in the area is an

over-estimate, then the percentage will be an under-estimate. This will result in a

less-deprived ranking on IMD.

For example, in IMD 2010 the LSOA ‘W-s-M Central - Alfred Street’ contained 570

income-deprived individuals, out of an estimated 1,768 living in the area (32%).

However, the 2011 national census, which is considered a more reliable source for

population figures, showed there were 13% fewer people living in that area,

suggesting the percentage of these who were income-deprived might have been

nearer 37%.

APPENDIX 1

Domains and Indicators used in the Indices of Deprivation 2015

The Indices of Deprivation 2015 were derived from 37 indicators at LSOA level,

which were allocated between seven domains of deprivation. The relative measure

of deprivation for an LSOA was calculated by combining the transformed ranks for

the seven domains according to the weightings shown in the chart below.

The criteria for inclusion of an indicator were that it should be ‘domain specific’,

appropriate for the purpose of measuring major features of that deprivation, up-to-

date, capable of being updated on a regular basis, statistically robust and available

for the whole of England at a small area level in a consistent form.

The indicators within each domain and the changes since IMD 2010 were as follows:

Income Deprivation

The definition of low income used included both those people who were out-of-work

and those who were in work, but who had low earnings and who satisfied the

respective means tests.

1. Adults and children in Income Support families

2. Adults and children in income-based Jobseeker’s Allowance families

3. Adults and children in income-based Employment and Support Allowance

families

4. Adults and children in Pension Credit (Guarantee) families

5. Adults and children in Working Tax Credit and Child Tax Credit families not

already counted, that is those who are not in receipt of Income Support,

income-based Jobseeker’s Allowance, income-based Employment and

Support Allowance or Pension Credit (Guarantee) and whose equivalent

income (excluding housing benefit) is below 60 per cent of the median before

housing costs

6. Asylum seekers in England in receipt of subsistence support, accommodation

support, or both.

Changes since IMD 2010 were that indicator 5 was expanded beyond just families

receiving Child Tax Credit to include Working Tax Credit and that changes in income

support rules affecting indicator 1 required the inclusion of new indicator 3.

Employment Deprivation

The Employment Deprivation Domain measures the proportion of the working age

population in an area involuntarily excluded from the labour market. This includes

people who would like to work but are unable to do so due to unemployment,

sickness or disability, or caring responsibilities.

7. Claimants of Jobseeker’s Allowance (both contribution-based and income-

based), women aged 18 to 59 and men aged 18 to 64

8. Claimants of Employment and Support Allowance, women aged 18 to 59 and

men aged 18 to 64

9. Claimants of Incapacity Benefit, women aged 18 to 59 and men aged 18 to 64

10. Claimants of Severe Disablement Allowance, women aged 18 to 59 and men

aged 18 to 64

11. Claimants of Carer’s Allowance, women aged 18 to 59 and men aged 18 to

64.

Indicator 11 was a new addition since IMD 2010. The three New Deal indicators

included in the IMD 2010 have been removed, because New Deal and Flexible New

Deal have been replaced by the Work Programme and the recipients should already

appear in indicator 7. Changes to rules around income support and jobseeker’s

allowance will also have affected the income and employment domains.

Education, Skills and Training Deprivation

The indicators fall into two sub-domains: one relating to children and young people

and one relating to adults’ skills.

Children and Young People sub-domain:

12. Key Stage 2 attainment: The average points score of pupils taking reading,

writing and mathematics Key Stage 2 exams

Page 22: The English Indices of Deprivation 2015 Briefing Note ...

NORTH SOMERSET COUNCIL BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE SERVICE

Page 22

13. Key Stage 4 attainment: The average capped points score of pupils taking

Key Stage 4

14. Secondary school absence: The proportion of authorised and unauthorised

absences from secondary school

15. Staying on in education post 16: The proportion of young people not staying

on in school or non-advanced education above age 16

16. Entry to higher education: A measure of young people aged under 21 not

entering higher education.

Adults’ Skills sub-domain:

17. Adults’ skills: The proportion of working age adults with no or low

qualifications, women aged 25 to 59 and men aged 25 to 64

18. English language proficiency: The proportion of working age adults who

cannot speak English or cannot speak English well, women aged 25 to 59 and

men aged 25 to 64.

Indicator 18 has been included for the first time in IMD 2015 and uses Census 2011

data. The age range included in indicator 17 has been raised from 54. The Key

Stage 3 attainment indicator included in IMD 2010 has been removed, because this

is now teacher assessed. The number of years of data used to calculate the

averages used in the Children and Young People sub-domain indicators has been

increased.

Health Deprivation and Disability

This measures the risk of premature death and the impairment of quality of life

through poor physical or mental health. It does not measure aspects of behaviour or

environment that may be predictive of future health deprivation.

19. Years of potential life lost: An age and sex standardised measure of

premature death

20. Comparative illness and disability ratio: An age and sex standardised

morbidity/disability ratio

21. Acute morbidity: An age and sex standardised rate of emergency admission

to hospital

22. Mood and anxiety disorders: A composite based on the rate of adults suffering

from mood and anxiety disorders, hospital episodes data, suicide mortality

data and health benefits data.

Data on claimants of Employment Support Allowance (which replaced Incapacity

Benefit and Income Support paid because of an illness or disability for new claimants

from 2008) has been incorporated into the comparative illness and disability ratio

indicator and the health benefits component of the mood and anxiety disorders

indicator. Work Capability Assessments for Employment Support Allowance were

introduced in 2008, reducing the number of people eligible for incapacity benefits.

Crime

This measures the risk of personal and material victimisation at local level.

23. Violence – number of reported violent crimes (18 reported crime types) per

1000 at risk population

24. Burglary – number of reported burglaries (4 reported crime types) per 1000 at

risk population

25. Theft – number of reported thefts (5 reported crime types) per 1000 at risk

population

26. Criminal damage – number of reported crimes (8 reported crime types) per

1000 at risk population

Due to Home Office changes to the counting rules for crimes, the offence categories

used for each indicator were amended to obtain the best comparability with IMD

2010.

Barriers to Housing and Services

The indicators used fall into two sub-domains: ‘geographical barriers’, which relate to

the physical proximity of local services and ‘wider barriers’ which includes issues

relating to access to housing such as affordability and homelessness.

Geographical Barriers sub-domain:

27. Road distance to a post office

28. Road distance to a primary school

29. Road distance to a general store or supermarket

30. Road distance to a GP surgery.

Wider Barriers sub-domain:

31. Household overcrowding: The proportion of all households in a Lower-layer

Super Output Area which are judged to have insufficient space to meet the

household’s needs

32. Homelessness: Local authority district level rate of acceptances for housing

assistance under the homelessness provisions of the 1996 Housing Act,

assigned to the constituent Lower-layer Super Output Areas

33. Housing affordability: Difficulty of access to owner-occupation or the private

rental market, expressed as the inability to afford to enter owner occupation or

the private rental market.

Indicator 33 was revised to include the inability to afford to enter the private rental

market, in addition to the owner-occupier sector and gives equal weight to each.

This indicator was also able to be produced at LSOA level for IMD 2015, rather than

just at local authority level which was used in IMD 2010. ‘Housing Market Areas’,

which reflect commuting and migration patterns, were used rather than local

authorities and other changes to improve the reliability of the indicator were also

incorporated.

Indicator 32 was made more robust by using homelessness data for three years

rather than the one year that was used in IMD 2010.

Living Environment Deprivation

The indicators used fall into two sub-domains. The ‘indoors’ living environment

measures the quality of housing, while the ‘outdoors’ living environment contains

measures of air quality and road traffic accidents.

Indoors sub-domain:

34. Houses without central heating: The proportion of houses that do not have

central heating

35. Housing in poor condition: The proportion of social and private homes that fail

to meet the Decent Homes standard.

Outdoors sub-domain:

36. Air quality: A measure of air quality based on emissions rates for four

pollutants

37. Road traffic accidents involving injury to pedestrians and cyclists: A measure

of road traffic accidents involving injury to pedestrians and cyclists among the

resident and workplace population.

Changes since IMD 2010 were that the method of calculating indicator 35 was

changed to improve accuracy and one of its data source was amended. One of the

targets within indicator 36 was also made more stringent.
