Overview

Summary of dataset and variables

Note: this is not the latest release in the series, for latest data go to Welsh Index of Multiple Deprivation (WIMD) 2025 results report.

The 2019 edition ranked all 1,909 Lower Layer Super Output Areas (LSOAs defined after Census 2011) from most (rank 1) to least (rank 1,909) deprived. It combines 47 indicators grouped under 8 domains which have the following weights in the overall index: Income (22%), Employment (22%), Health (15%), Education (14%), Access to Services (10%), Housing (7%), Community Safety (5%), and Physical Environment (5%).

The data here is for the underlying indicators that feed into the Welsh Index of Multiple Deprivation 2019.

This table contains data for the 6 indicators which form the community safety domain. All indicators are rounded to 2 decimal places.

Indicator data are suppressed if there were fewer than 5 incidents.

Local authority indicator estimates have been produced where the original data allows for aggregating to geographies above LSOA level. Where this is not possible for a given indicator, local authority data entries will display [x] in the Data column.

Data collection or calculation

The purpose of this domain is to measure deprivation relating to living in a safe community. It covers actual experience of crime and fire, as well as perceptions of safety whilst out and about in the local area. The domain has a relative weight of 5% in the overall index.

There are six indicators in the community safety domain, weighted as follows. Factor analysis was used to calculate the indicator weights.

  • 61% Police Recorded Criminal Damage
  • 19% Police Recorded Violent Crime
  • 8% Police Recorded Anti-Social Behaviour
  • 5% Police Recorded Burglary
  • 4% Police Recorded Theft
  • 3% Fire Incidents

All of the indicators are expressed as rates, with the numerator consisting of the number of crimes/incidents/fires per LSOA (averaged over two years) and the denominator consisting of the number of people/properties in the LSOA.

For every indicator, each LSOA was ranked in order, with the most deprived LSOA ranked 1 and the least deprived LSOA ranked 1,909. These ranks were assigned to a normal distribution, with low ranks receiving a low normalised score. They were then combined using the weights above.

Statistical quality

The WIMD 2019 data have been produced by professional statisticians using the latest data, rigorous analytical methods, and independent validation at every stage. WIMD 2019 builds on previous versions to ensure accuracy and reliability, combining 47 indicators from diverse sources (some but not all are based on official statistics sources) to minimize bias and strengthen robustness. Quality assurance included multiple checks, replication of results, and expert review with domain specialists and local authorities.
