About this data

Due to the limited amount of people who may live in PL7 2GU, we've expanded the catchment area to include the neighbourhood.

Rather than showing demographic data from just PL7 2GU, 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 85 people who live in PL7 2GU.

The postcode PL7 2GU is in the LSOA area called 'Plymouth 018C', in the Plympton Chaddlewood ward.

The geographical demographic data for PL7 2GU 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)
