Leicestershire county · 1 card
How deprived Leicestershire is overall, with district-level and upper-tier comparisons where both apply.
Leicestershire has an IMD 2025 score of 12.8 (higher means more deprived). Leicestershire ranks 18th least deprived of 153. A single district-level rank does not apply to the whole county because it contains several districts. The Index of Multiple Deprivation blends income, employment, education, health, crime, housing and the living environment into one score. It is a composite index, not a rate, and it averages across the whole area — individual neighbourhoods can differ widely.
