About the data

The Indices of Deprivation 2025 (IoD25) measure relative deprivation across small geographic areas in England.

IoD25 is formed from 7 domains which measure different aspects of deprivation, one combined Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD) and 2 supplementary indices.

The iod25 package is made up of 3 core datasets:

domains contains the 7 domain measures
imd contains the Index of Multiple Deprivation
supplementary contains the 2 supplementary indices

And two additional datasets:

subdomains contains the underlying measures used to construct the domains
population contains the population denominators used to construct the indices
