Note: Indices of multiple deprivation offer a more complex and detailed view of deprivation, based on more factors than the Townsend index. All scores have been scaled to 0–1, 0–100, or even distributions standardized around 0, with higher values indicating more deprived. Details of individual score has been described in the GOV.UK (https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/english‐indices‐of‐deprivation).
