Income domain rank classification |

Description
|
The purpose of this domain is to measure the proportion of people with income below a defined level. The income domain has a relative weight of 22% in the overall WIMD 2019 Index. The income domain is made up of one indicator, containing four elements:
- Income-Related Benefit claimants
- Tax Credit recipients
- Supported Asylum Seekers
- People on Universal Credit (excluding those 'working with no requirements'). Dependent children of the above are also included. This indicator is expressed as a percentage of the residential population for each LSOA, with the prison population subtracted from the four LSOAs containing prisons in Wales (as at 2016).The indicator values were ranked, then ranks were exponentially transformed to form domain scores for use in the calculation of the overall WIMD 2019. |
