Annex to 2014-2020 ERDF Operational Programme
Top fifth (20%) Most Deprived Areas in England: Local Enterprise
Partnership Level Data
This Annex provides high level data on Areas within England’s LEP areas that
according to the Office of National Statistics (ONS) data on deprivation will meet the
criteria for the prioritisation of CLLD ERDF / ESF assistance in more developed and
transition regions as set out in this note.

The Index of Multiple Deprivation measures relative deprivation in Lower
Super Output Areas (LSOAs) across England. Mapped in this note is the top
20 per cent (fifth) deprived LSOAs in England.
Contained also are LEP area boundaries, zoomed views with labels and
further information.
The data behind the mapping can be found in Annex A on page 10. Liverpool
City Region, Tees Valley and the Black Country have the highest proportions
of LSOAs in the top 20 per cent most deprived.
Background
The Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD) ranks areas according to their score on a
range of factors that can make it deprived (e.g. income, employment, access to
services). The IMD was last published in the English Indices of Deprivation (DCLG
2010).
This note uses the smallest feasible geography that ONS provide for maximum
focus: the Lower Super Output Areas (LSOAs). LSOAs contain at least 1,000
inhabitants, but never more than 3,000.
Areas which score more highly for deprivation get a higher rank. The areas ranked in
the top 20 per cent are the subject of this note

Overleaf is a view of all of England, with the boundaries of LEPs marked out and the
LSOAs that are in the top 20 per cent coloured blue. Further maps zoom in on LEP
areas to show the deprivation of these LSOAs across LEP areas in greater detail.

*Note: this information is taken from the sums of most deprived LSOAs in Local Authorities in England since LEP area data is
not readily available from ONS. Therefore some Local Authorities in this dataset belong to two LEP areas due to overlaps that
exist. In these cases the overlapping areas were double counted for each respective LEP area in accordance with ONS
guidance.

Most Deprived Areas in England: Local Authority Boundary Level
Data
Appendix 2 sets out the top 20% most deprived Lower Super Output Areas (LSOAs)
in England and how they relate to English Local Authority boundaries.
The tables in Annex A show the count of English LSOAs in the most deprived
fifth by Local Authority area in descending order. LSOAs typically contain
between 1,000 and 3,000 residents according to the Office for National Statistics
(ONS), they are the smallest feasible geography that the ONS provide. 1 Deprivation
for LSOAs is measured by the English Indices of Multiple Deprivation (IMD) and was
last updated in 2010; the next publication will come in the summer of 2015.2 The IMD
ranks LSOAs according to a score of deprivation that is based on a number of factors
(e.g. employment, income, access to services), only LSOAs ranking in the top 20%
most deprived are counted in this study. Note that Authorities without any deprived
LSOAs (e.g. City of London) do not feature in the table.
Large, ‘core-city’, Local Authorities and Metropolitan Boroughs unsurprisingly
contain the highest numbers of most deprived LSOAs. Birmingham – England’s
largest Local Authority – contains more deprived LSOAs than any other by some
margin and other core cities: Liverpool, Manchester and Leeds follow. The London
Boroughs of Newham, Hackney and Tower Hamlets each contain over 90 deprived
LSOAs each.
However some smaller Authorities in the ‘Industrial Hinterlands’ and ‘Coastal
and Countryside’ categories have high counts of deprived LSOAs relative to
their size. Wolverhampton and Sandwell in the Black Country and County Durham in
the North East for example feature among the Authorities with the highest number of
deprived LSOAs. Coastal areas, such as Cornwall have significant numbers of
deprived LSOAs given that they have lower populations than the largest cities and
boroughs.
Figure 1 (overleaf) displays the data on a map of England, with the most
deprived LSOAs coloured blue. Visually the trends emerge as the data leads us to
expect, with clusters of blue around core city areas and ‘Industrial Hinterlands’, but
also visible formations around the English coast too.
