About this data

The postcode SS1 2DW is in the LSOA area called 'Southend-on-Sea 014C', in the Kursaal ward.

The geographical demographic data for SS1 2DW 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)
