Get deprivation data with coe_parish_deprivation() or coe_parish_imd()

The English Indices of Multiple Deprivation are a way of raking every small area (LLSOA) in England from most to least deprived. The Church of England’s Data Services team use these data to produce deprivation statistics for every parish in the Church of England, giving every parish a score and a rank from most to least deprived. With coedata, you can view these data using the coe_parish_deprivation() function. By default, this function returns, for each parish:

  • Overall deprivation score
  • Overall deprivation rank
  • Parish deprivation decile
  • Parish deprivation percentile

However, the function paramaters can be adjusted so that scores and ranks for IMD domains and subdomains are included, as well as additional supplementary data.

Note that for ranks, deciles and percentiles, lower values correspond to higher deprivation.
