IMD average score by local authority
The population-weighted average Index of Multiple Deprivation score of each district's small areas, from the IoD2025 local authority district summaries. A higher score means the district's small areas are on average more deprived relative to the rest of England at one moment; scores are not comparable between index editions, so no change is mapped.

What this map shows
296 of 296 local authority areas have a current value for imd average score (imd average score), IoD2025 (published November 2025). Classes are quantiles of the areas with data, computed on the server, so the same link always gives the same legend.
The population-weighted average of the district's LSOA scores, as published.

- Data
- English Indices of Deprivation: local authority district summaries (MHCLG).
- Denominator
- None (a published summary score per district). Percentiles rank the English districts with a published score. English Indices of Deprivation: local authority district summaries.
- Coverage
- The English Indices of Deprivation cover England only. Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland publish their own indices, which rank areas within their own nation and are not comparable with England's or each other's.
- Boundaries
- ONS Open Geography Portal generalised boundaries, Open Government Licence v3.0 (2025-05 BGC v2 LAD_MAY_2025_UK_BGC_V2).
- Basemap
- Ordnance Survey Maps API (Light), used under the OS Data Hub terms.
- Formula
- the published population-weighted average score for the district, unchanged
- Stale areas
- The index is a single publication; every district's figure is from the same edition, so nothing here can be stale relative to another area. A district with no published summary is drawn as no data.
- Method
- Methodology
What this does not measure
Deprivation of any individual person or household, change over time (scores are not comparable between index editions), or anywhere outside England: Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland run their own indices, which are not comparable with England's.
The Indices of Deprivation rank places in England relative to each other at one moment. Scores from different index years (2015, 2019, 2025) are not comparable — the indicators and their weights change — so no change over time is shown for these figures. The index year names the publication: the indicators beneath IoD2025 mostly describe 2021 to 2023. The index covers England only; the other UK nations publish their own, mutually incomparable indices. District summaries average the index's small-area scores, and MHCLG publishes several equally valid summaries: the two shown here (population-weighted average score, and the share of small areas in the national most-deprived tenth) answer different questions and can rank a district differently.
England only. The other UK nations are drawn as no data because their indices are not comparable, not because deprivation is absent.
