Reported per constituent MSOA and never combined: a location's MSOAs are not a partition of it, so summing them overstates by 50-70%. Counts rounded to the nearest 5 — a zero means 0, 1 or 2. UK Business Counts (IDBR-derived), not BRES, which carries confidentiality conditions we do not accept.

Constructed, not published — ONS publishes this ratio at local authority level only. The denominator is LA-wide, so treat as indicative. A ratio does not aggregate. The earnings are the median gross annual pay of full-time employees who live in the local authority, from the resident analysis of the Annual Survey of Hours and Earnings.

A median. It cannot be summed or averaged across areas, and a location spanning several MSOAs has no single median. Published at MSOA, so the footprint is not the parish.

A model-based estimate, not a measurement. Compare using the published confidence interval, which is stored with every observation.

Both shares count output areas rather than people, so they are close to the share of residents without being it.

Table of the figures for the wider areas

Figures published only for a wider area

House prices, household income, business counts and four census tables are not published for parishes. The smallest area they exist for is a Middle Layer Super Output Area — roughly 7,200 people, drawn for statistical convenience rather than as somewhere anyone would say they live.

The figures below describe that area, not Litton Cheney. There is no parish version to give you, for two different reasons. A median cannot be added up, and averaging the medians of two areas produces a number that is not a median of anything. The census counts could be added up arithmetically, but ONS does not publish them below this level and this area does not divide neatly along the boundary of Litton Cheney — so a parish figure would be an estimate of ours wearing the census's authority. Either way they are shown as what they are, one row per area, and left unsummed.

The first percentage says how much of Litton Cheney falls in each area. The second says how much of that area is Litton Cheney, which is the one that tells you how far to trust a figure published for it: where it is small, the number is mostly about somewhere else. Both count output areas rather than people, so they are close to the share of residents without being it. Across the 198 single-MSOA parishes Ezra has derived, the median second figure is 4.8%.
