The data here underlies the analysis of deep-rooted deprivation. This analysis can be found in the WIMD 2019 results report. The Welsh Index of Multiple Deprivation (WIMD) is the official measure of relative deprivation for small areas in Wales. It is designed to identify those small areas where there are the highest concentrations of several different types of deprivation. WIMD 2019 is the most recent index and ranks all small areas in Wales from 1 (most deprived) to 1,909 (least deprived). The small areas are otherwise known as Lower Layer Super Output Areas (LSOAs). This geography is built from census data and represents small areas each with a population of around 1,600 people. This data includes WIMD overall and domain ranks for the last 5 WIMD publications (WIMD 2005, 2008, 2011, 2014 and 2019) and identifies which category of deep-rooted deprivation each small area in Wales falls into. The data table has four different views, each showing areas that fall into each of the four categories. Full descriptions of the four categories of deep-rooted deprivation can be seen on this webpage.
