Caveats
- Weighted Annual Population Survey estimate for how anxious respondents felt yesterday; it is not a diagnosis of an anxiety disorder.
- 95% confidence interval: 1.36 to 2.36 out of 10.
- Derived from the published point estimates for 149 upper-tier authorities with data. Exact ties share a rank. Overlapping confidence intervals mean nearby ranks may not be meaningfully different.
- Happiness and anxiety are separate ONS measures; they should not be combined into one index.
- Lower means a lower mean self-reported anxiety score, not an absence of anxiety.
