Methods

Socio-economic and mortality analyses were conducted at a small area-level within each city. The maps of London represent 633 Census Area Statistical Wards or small areas.  Data from the 2001 Census was used to obtain the population size per Census Area Statistical Ward. 

As the population size per small area was not available in Census data following 2001, the population figures from 2001 were multiplied by nine to represent the total number of years included in the study period (2000 - 2008).  The INEQ-CITIES research of London is based on these figures. 

The table below shows the estimated population size per Census Area Statistical Ward by first, second (median) and third quartiles, based on 2001 figures from the Office for National Statistics.
