Decile 5/10 in England — This small area sits around the middle of the official England neighbourhood wellbeing ranking. Official small-area indices rank parts of England within that nation only; do not treat deciles as comparable across England, Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland. Use deprivation for within-nation context only. England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland publish different measures, methods, and release years.
Where the postcode matches a Census 2021 statistical area, we show population, tenure and age context to describe housing pressure and community structure. Figures describe the surrounding statistical area or postcode estimate, not individual households.
