The table below shows the overall multiple deprivation measure rank and available domains for Output Area 95XX230008. The OA Multiple Deprivation Measure (MDM) was constructed from OA and SOA results. The creation of the MDM at OA level allows the identification of smaller pockets of deprivation than the SOA results. The majority of indicators in the Education, Skills & Training Domain, the Health Deprivation and Disability Domain and the Living Environment Domain were created at OA level by assigning SOA results to constituent OAs. For a number of indicators in the Education, Skills and Training and Health Deprivation and Disability Domain, actual OA level results were created. In terms of indicator weight, 86% of the overall OA Multiple Deprivation Measure was calculated at the OA level.
