Find the SIMD rank for an area of interest
using the interactive mapping software
Click to Start
This tutorial provides a step-by-step guide showing how you can use the SIMD interactive mapping software to find the SIMD rank for an area of interest. It uses animated pictures of the website so that you can see exactly where to click and what to do. The tutorial pauses along the way so that after each step you can go off and repeat the action you have been shown on the SIMD website (www.scotland.gov.uk/simd).

If you choose the HTML version your screen will look a little different to this but there will still be a box in which you can enter a postcode or location.
You can type a postcode, a place name or a datazone code into the box but to get a ranking you need to enter a datazone code or a postcode. For more information on datazones see the FAQ section on our website.

This is the overall SIMD 2009 rank of the datazone containing the postcode ‘FK1 1SW’. A rank of 976 or lower means the datazone is one of the 15% most deprived in Scotland.
