Aberdeen Key FactsDeprivationMost deprived data zones, SIMD 2016The Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation (SIMD) is the Scottish Government’s official tool for identifyingsmall area concentrations of multiple deprivation across all of Scotland. It is based on the small area geographyknown as data zones. SIMD 2016 is developed using 2011 based data zones whilst previous editions have used2001 based data zones. Therefore, no direct comparison is possible with the previous editions. Based on 2011data zones there are 6,976 data zones in Scotland and 283 data zones in Aberdeen City. The Scottish Governmentuses a 15% cut-off to define the most deprived data zones. By that measure, 9 of Aberdeen City’s 283 data zoneswere among the most deprived in Scotland in SIMD 2016.All data zonesIn most deprived 15% inScotland% of all data zones incouncil areaAberdeen City28393%Aberdeenshire34031%Dundee City1885529%City of Edinburgh5975910%Glasgow City74632043%6,9761,046ScotlandSource: Scottish GovernmentNumber and population of most deprived(MD) data zones in Aberdeen CityAberdeen City has 22 data zones in the most deprived 20% of all Scottish data zones.
