Dataset: Absolute Low Income

Description

The Children in low-income families’ local area statistics (CiLIF), provides information on the number of children living in Absolute low income by local area across the United Kingdom.

Statistics on the number of children (by age) in low income families by financial year are published on Stat-Xplore. Figures are calibrated to the Households Below Average Income (HBAI) survey regional estimates of children in low income but provide more granular local area information not available from the HBAI for example by Local Authority, Parliamentary Constituency and Ward.

Absolute low-income is defined as a family whose equivalised income is below 60 per cent of the 2010/11 median income adjusted for inflation. Gross income measure is Before Housing Costs (BHC) and includes contributions from earnings, state support and pensions.

Statistical disclosure control has been applied with Stat-Xplore, which guards against the identification of an individual claimant.
