- Data is expressed as an Index, where the national average is equivalent to an index of ‘100'.
- An index of ‘0' highlights a nil presence of that particular ethnic group.
- As 93% of the UK population is classified as ‘White', therefore indices over ‘100' help highlight local areas where there is a higher than average proportion of other ethnicities.
- Applications include the assessment of retail catchments to accurately match products, services, marketing materials and human resourcing to their audience.
