About this data

Due to the limited amount of people who may live in SW2 5UX, we've expanded the catchment area to include the neighbourhood.

Rather than showing demographic data from just SW2 5UX, we've taken data from the LSOA (Lower Super Output Area) so we can display accurate demographic data.

Using a bigger sample of the local population gives us more insightful data than relying solely on the 47 people who live in SW2 5UX.

The postcode SW2 5UX is in the LSOA area called 'Lambeth 017D', in the Ferndale ward.

The geographical demographic data for SW2 5UX 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)
