Using a bigger sample of the local population gives us more insightful data than relying solely on the people who live in DY5 4YW.

The postcode DY5 4YW is in the LSOA area called 'Dudley 017A', in the Brockmoor and Pensnett ward.

The geographical demographic data for DY5 4YW 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)
