A flexible way to get local data

Define your own geographic area and explore 46 datasets covering England and Wales down to a neighbourhood level

Get started

Create an area

In order to select an area, you can:

  • find an area in the search box
  • draw your own area on the map
  • upload an area boundary

Build a profile

Choose datasets to build a profile for your selected area.

When finished, you can download the data, charts and geography data.

Download datasets

A flexible way to explore and download datasets.

Select multiple custom areas and download datasets for your own use.

Which datasets are available?

This tool includes a variety of datasets aggregated from small area data. You can find information on all available datasets on the glossary page.

If you only need data for standard areas down to local authority level, a wider range of topics can also be found on Explore Local Statistics(opens in a new tab) .

How does this tool produce its figures?

When you select an area, the tool chooses the underlying small area geographies that most accurately represent it using a best-fit methodology(opens in a new tab) .

When you select a dataset, the data for the best-fit areas is added up (or "aggregated") to give you numbers that best represent the area you selected.

Important information:
Whilst most datasets in this tool are available down to the smallest Output Area (OA) level, some datasets are only available down to an Lower-layer Super Output Area (LSOA) level. We advise caution when comparing values between OA and LSOA datasets.
