The geographies are based on April 2024 geography codes. More information on geography code changes can be found at the ONS website: https://www.ons.gov.uk/methodology/geography/ukgeographies
Estimates of fuel poverty at Lower Super Output Area (LSOA) should be treated with caution. The estimates should only be used to look at general trends and identify areas of particularly high or low fuel poverty. They should not be used to identify trends over time within an LSOA, or to compare LSOAs with similar fuel poverty levels due to very small sample sizes and consequent instability in estimates at this level. See Sub-regional fuel poverty report, 2024: https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/sub-regional-fuel-poverty-2024-2022-data

Household numbers have been applied at sub-regional areas of geography, and scaled to English Region levels to ensure that fuel poverty and household numbers match published 2022 levels.
