The postcode SW16 1LA is in the LSOA area called 'Lambeth 029A', in the St Leonard's ward.

The geographical demographic data for SW16 1LA has been extracted from the Office of National Statistics, responsible for the collection and publication of UK statistics relating to population, society and economy. (ONS)
