The goal of iod25 is to provide R users with easier access to the English Indices of Deprivation 2025.
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:
-
domainscontains the 7 domain measures -
imdcontains the Index of Multiple Deprivation -
supplementarycontains the 2 supplementary indices
And two additional datasets:
-
subdomainscontains the underlying measures used to construct the domains -
populationcontains the population denominators used to construct the indices
