Hampshire and the Isle of Wight Cartograms

Cartograms are a form of mapping that prioritises displaying statistical information over geographical truth. Hexagonal catrograms of each Middle Layer Super Output Area (MSOA) across Hampshire and the Isle of Wight (including Southampton) have been produced by the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Integrated Care Board. The below visualisation presents a range of demographic and health indicators by these cartograms.

Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD 2019) reports and data

The Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities (DLUHC) published the latest Indices of Deprivation (IoD) in 2019. The Indices of Deprivation (2019) provides a relative ranking of areas across the country according to their level of deprivation and is the primary source of information on deprivation in England. The IMD measures deprivation at neighbourhood level known as 2011 Lower Super Output Areas (LSOAs), which contain approximately 1,500 people, and ranks each of the 32,844 LSOAs in England by their level of deprivation and splits them into 10 equal groups known as deciles. The original IMD data produced by the DLUHC can be downloaded below along with a summary slide set. In addition, a series of maps are also available below illustrating the deprivation decile assignment for each of Southampton’s 148 LSOAs for each domain of deprivation, along with an interactive mapping tool produced by DLUHC, which allows the data for the whole of England to be explored and compared with 2015. The Southampton analysis summary slide set has been updated for 2023 ward boundaries.
