About this data

Rather than showing demographic data from just WV4 6PX, 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 54 people who live in WV4 6PX.

The postcode WV4 6PX is in the LSOA area called 'Wolverhampton 034D', in the Spring Vale ward.

The geographical demographic data for WV4 6PX 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)
