Data from the 2021 census has highlighted the most deprived areas in Nottinghamshire when considering education, employment, health and housing. The data found that the areas with the highest percentage of households deprived in all four areas are Radford, Hyson Green, Newark South West, Sutton Central and Leamington.
These four areas each have 0.6% of its households classed as deprived in all categories. A household is classified as deprived in education if nobody has at least a level 2 in education, and nobody aged 16 to 18 is a full time student, whereas a household is deprived in health if any member is classed as disabled.
Similarly a household is deprived in the housing dimension if the household is overcrowded, in a shared dwelling or has no central heating. A household deprived in employment is when any member of the household, who is not a full-time student, is either unemployed or disabled.
