Support for analysing and reporting on English Indices of Deprivation 2025

The English Indices of Deprivation 2025 (IoD 2025) have now been published by the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG):

OCSI and Deprivation.org were commissioned by MHCLG to update these crucial datasets. This is the third consecutive iteration we have led on and we are so pleased the data is now in the public domain for people to use.

We know many organisations are keen to start analysing the data and to share insights with their key stakeholders and partners. We are offering a range of support services to help you make sense of the data fast and to save you days of manual research time.

IMD Explorer

We’re excited to launch the Local Insight IMD Explorer, a new way to explore the Indices of Deprivation across England through interactive maps to help you identify deprivation patterns at a glance. 

With the Local Insight IMD Explorer, you can view key indicators for:

  • LSOAs (Lower-layer Super Output Areas)
  • MSOAs (Middle-layer Super Output Areas)
  • Wards
  • Local Authorities

Zoom in to explore local neighbourhoods or pan out to understand regional trends. Each area is colour-coded to show relative deprivation levels, helping you quickly identify areas of higher deprivation.
