Local Authority Area Profile – Aberdeenshire Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation 2012 (www.scotland.gov.uk/simd) Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation (SIMD) 2012 The map shows the distribution of datazones in Aberdeenshire Map showing 2012 distribution As can be seen from the decile graph, only 4% of Aberdeenshire’s datazones are found in the 30% most deprived datazones in Scotland on the overall SIMD 2009. In fact, over half (57%) of Aberdeenshire’s datazones are in the 30% least deprived datazones in Scotland on the overall SIMD 2009.

As well as being the most deprived datazone on the overall SIMD 2009, S01000486 is the most deprived datazone on 3 of the 7 SIMD domains: income; employment; and crime. Local Authority Area Profile – Aberdeenshire Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation 2012 (www.scotland.gov.uk/simd) The map shows the areas within Aberdeenshire which have moved into or remained in the 15% most deprived areas between SIMD 2009 and SIMD 2012. These areas are generally found in Fraserburgh and Peterhead. National Share of most deprived areas The barcode chart shows how the levels of deprivation in a local authority compare with the rest of Scotland. Each bar on the barcode represents a datazone and is positioned according to its deprivation rank: the more deprived a datazone is, the further to the left it will be positioned. A concentration of lines close together shows as a block. If a block appears towards the left hand side of the scale it shows a concentration of deprived areas, while a concentration towards the right hand side shows a concentration of areas at the least deprived end of the distribution.

Local Authority Area Profile – Aberdeenshire Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation 2012 (www.scotland.gov.uk/simd) Impact of Deprivation on Outcomes Sample of how SIMD data can be combined with other indicators The SIMD can be combined with other data to show the impact of deprivation on a range of outcome areas. By way of illustration, examples are provided here for two indicators. The same kind of analysis can be done using any locally available dataset which includes datazone level information. One dataset is percentage of women who self-report smoking at their ante-natal booking visit. Chart 5 shows that the percentage of women smoking at ante-natal booking decreases as deprivation decreases. Those in the most deprived 20% of areas in Aberdeenshire were almost twice as likely to smoke at booking than those in even quintile 2 (30% compared to 17% in 2008-10).

In 2009/10 just over 1 in 5 of those living in the 20% most deprived parts of Aberdeenshire gained 5 awards compared to more than 1 in 2 in the least deprived 20%. 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% 2002/03 2003/04 2004/05 Quintile 1 2005/06 Quintile 2 2006/07 Quintile 3 2007/08 Quintile 4 2008/09 2009/10 Quintile 5 More information on how to combine SIMD with other data to perform similar analyses can be found at: www.scotland.gov.uk/Topics/Statistics/SIMD/SIMDAnalysis More information on SIMD can be found at: www.scotland.gov.uk/simd
