The Residential Mobility and Deprivation (RMD) datasets created by the CDRC provide yearly Local Authority (LAD) level estimates of the mean differences of residential mobility and deprivation of all known adults’ moves to, from and within each neighbourhood in the UK for 1997-2023.

These data allow researchers to analyse whether incoming residents likely originate from more or less deprived neighbourhoods, perhaps indicating neighbourhood gentrification or relative obsolescence. Annual estimates and attribution of precise neighbourhood origins and destinations extends what is available in decennial census data. Additionally, researchers can investigate which neighbourhoods are platforms for moves to less or more deprived neighbourhoods, indicating neighbourhood roles in facilitating social mobility. London Consumer Register estimates are triangulated with census statistics and can be used to update them during intercensal periods.

Note: The '*' in the index means the figures were suppressed to avoid disclosive issues (i.e., lower count). RMD figures are measured at a percentile scale.
