The Environment Agency states no reference period for this dataset. Its own page gives its period as "N/A". Counted from published postcode-level totals. Property-level and address -level records derive from OS AddressBase and are not open data — they are never held and never published. A zero here is a measurement, not a gap: the Environment Agency's extract lists only postcodes that contain property at risk, so an area absent from it has none. A few postcodes in the extract have been retired since it was published and can no longer be placed — 27 of the 2,864 in Dorset and BCP when this was measured on 03/09/2026, holding two residential properties between them. Where one of those could have fallen in an area whose figure would otherwise read zero, Ezra publishes nothing for that area rather than a zero; where the area already has a figure, it may be short by that much.

The Environment Agency states no reference period for this dataset. Its own page gives its period as "N/A". One of the Environment Agency's four likelihood bands. The four bands together account for every residential property this area has at risk, so they are a division of that total and not an addition to it. A zero here is a measurement, not a gap: the Environment Agency's extract lists only postcodes that contain property at risk, so an area absent from it has none.

The Environment Agency states no reference period for this dataset. Its own page gives its period as "N/A". A count of postcodes the Environment Agency lists as containing property at risk, not of properties. A postcode with one property at risk counts the same as one with fifty. A zero here is a measurement, not a gap: the Environment Agency's extract lists only postcodes that contain property at risk, so an area absent from it has none. A few postcodes in the extract have been retired since it was published and can no longer be placed — 27 of the 2,864 in Dorset and BCP when this was measured on 03/09/2026. Every one of them is in the extract because something there is at risk, so each is a missing count of one: where one could have fallen in an area that would otherwise read zero, Ezra publishes nothing for that area rather than a zero. That was 23 areas on 03/09/2026.

Counts charities whose registered address falls in the area, which is not the same as where they operate. Trustee names are personal data, are outside the OGL grant and are never held. A charity is placed by resolving its registered postcode to an output area. Some cannot be: the register's addresses go stale, postcodes are retired, and 1,797 entries nationally carry a postcode that does not parse at all ("BH23:1AB", "BH8 OAD"). Those charities are counted nowhere rather than guessed at, so this is a count of the charities Ezra can place and may be slightly short. Measured 03/09/2026: three postcodes across Dorset and BCP that no longer resolve, plus an unknown share of the unreadable ones. "No longer resolve" is what was measured rather than "retired": the lookup answers the same way for a postcode that was withdrawn and for one that never existed, and a mistyped address gives the second.

A single large charity registered at a local address can dominate this figure without spending anything locally. A charity whose registered postcode no longer resolves is counted nowhere, as it is for the count of registered charities — but a count loses one charity where this loses the whole of that charity's income, so the same handful of postcodes can move this figure much further. Measured 05/09/2026: three such postcodes across Dorset and BCP, carrying three charities with £133,738 of income between them, of which £133,638 is one charity — the same single-charity effect as the first sentence, in the other direction. Which places those three would have counted towards is not known, so this says three postcodes rather than three places: most places lose nothing at all. Charities whose registered postcode cannot be read are lost on top of this and are not counted here.

A single large charity registered at a local address can dominate this figure without spending anything locally. Expenditure is what a charity spent, not what it spent here — the register records neither.

Measured 05/09/2026: three such postcodes across Dorset and BCP, carrying three charities with £154,916 of spending between them, all of it one charity — the same single-charity effect as the first sentence, in the other direction. Which places those three would have counted towards is not known, so this says three postcodes rather than three places: most places lose nothing at all.
