About this data

Due to the limited amount of people who may live in CM1 2DD, we've expanded the catchment area to include the neighbourhood.

Rather than showing demographic data from just CM1 2DD, 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 130 people who live in CM1 2DD.

The postcode CM1 2DD is in the LSOA area called 'Chelmsford 006A', in the Marconi ward.

The geographical demographic data for CM1 2DD 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)
