TD12 vs TD5

Overall measures differ. Gaps below are by category, not a ranking of the places.

This reflects published infrastructure and environmental data. It does not measure the people who live here, house prices as a marker of status, or safety.

TD12

Scottish Borders, North East

59% used

The above measure is a blend of higher and more limited category measures, with no single pattern. Lower modelled pollution, not dirtier air. Public transport further away.

How this 59 was calculated

  • Transport

    72/100·19% of the measure

Schools, Amenities, Green space, Council tax. We could not obtain published figures here, so these categories were left out and the remaining weights scaled up to fill the gap. A missing dataset never counts against an area.
