Names beginning “Around” are generated descriptions. Locality names use OS map display priority, then estimated resident totals assigned to the nearest locality from each output area’s representative point. Road names use road length weighted by output-area resident density. These estimates do not locate individual residents or establish recognised neighbourhood names.

Neighbourhood deprivation table

Deprivation, by neighbourhood

The Indices of Deprivation are published for Lower Layer Super Output Areas, which ONS designs to hold between 1,000 and 3,000 people. 10 of them cover Verwood, and Verwood holds each of them outright. These describe parts of Verwood rather than somewhere wider.

There is no single figure for Verwood, and there cannot be. A rank says where one neighbourhood sits among those ranked in England. Ranks cannot be added or averaged into a rank for the place. Each neighbourhood is shown as published.

Indices of Deprivation ranks for each Lower Layer Super Output Area that covers part of Verwood. Each describes one neighbourhood, and they cannot be combined into a figure for Verwood.
