Please could I request population estimates by sex, single year of age, and Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD) decile for England for mid 2022 (June). I would like this in an Excel file.
We said
Thank you for your request.
The Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD) is produced by The Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government. They have not yet released an IMD based on 2022 Lower Super Output Area (LSOA).
To produce population estimates by IMD decile for 2022, we require a 2021 LSOA based index to link our LSOA populations to. Therefore, unfortunately, the requested information is not held.
When the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government publish the 2021 based index, the populations by IMD data you have requested can be created via our bespoke services route. This will be available to order by contacting health.data@ons.gov.uk.
Please note these services are subject to legal frameworks, disclosure control, resources and agreements of costs in line with our charging policy.
