As part of the 2021 census, households in England and Wales were classified in terms of four different ‘dimensions of deprivation’.
Households were considered to be deprived if they met one of the four following criteria: employment, education, health and housing.
Households were not considered to be deprived if they didn’t meet any of these criteria. The Office for National Statistics said deprivation is a ‘complex topic’, adding that more detailed information would come in future releases.
Here are the areas of Portsmouth with the most non-deprived households.
