English Indices of Deprivation 2025 Published

Written By Glos VCSE Alliance

The Indices of Deprivation are a unique measure of relative deprivation at a small local area level (Lower-layer Super Output Areas) across England and have been produced by the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government and its predecessors in similar way since 2000.

The 7 individual domains of deprivation include:

  • Income Deprivation (22.5%)

  • Employment Deprivation (22.5%)

  • Education, Skills and Training Deprivation (13.5%)

  • Health Deprivation and Disability (13.5%)

  • Crime (9.3%)

  • Barriers to Housing and Services (9.3%)

  • Living Environment Deprivation (9.3%)

All 7 combine (weighted as indicated) to create the IMD, the official measure of deprivation in England.

The 2025 dataset was released on 30th October 2025, and you can view it (including an interactive map) here: https://deprivation.communities.gov.uk/
