Hi, Martin

I'm sure that property prices and market rents are much higher per square foot in the areas of peak deaths than where I live in Hereford.

And I notice the two highest peaking areas to where I live are Birmingham and Cardiff. I know that Birmingham's population has been severely hit by the impacts of: 1) Universal Credit; and 2) Out of Borough Placements from London. These phenomena have impacted on Birmingham Post & Evening Mail reporting for some years now, as evidenced by the keyword search discretionary housing payments.

What weird designations for the areas

Martin Francis said...

I was puzzled when people referred to 'Church End ward' - do they match polling districts which would make sense?

Pete Firmin said...

No, they don't

The important thing is to focus on the disparities the statistics reveal and the need to address the underlying inequality issues in the future.

But that's hard to do when there is no comparison with any other designation of areas. If it was a comparison with LA wards (or even polling districts) we could see deaths per head of population. With these strange areas that is impossible.
