Does anyone know of a way of identifying the number of transfer cases there are likely to be in a postcode area ( ideally)

We have started to see a wave of these and need to look at resources to be realistic on them

Thankyou in anticipation

Hi Jackie. From the ONS site

http://neighbourhood.statistics.gov.uk/dissemination/LeadTableView.do?a=7&b=6275229&c=YO8+4PW&e=10&g=6482604&i=1001x1012x1013x1003x1006&j=6309745&k=DLA&m=1&p=-1&q=1&r=0&s=1446111758188&enc=1&domainId=4&dsFamilyId=1380

shows that in 2010 there were 85 DLA claimants in the Selby 005E Lower Layer Super Output Area (the locality around Selby Bureau). of whom 55 were in the 16-59 age group. You can play around with the postcodes, ages, etc. on the ONS website. I recently did something similar with our local area but found the results a bit scary.

Hi Billy

Thankyou for this as you say the numbers look a bit scary but do give us an idea on what is potentially possible

a useful tool for a lot of stuff
