UK public data, by local authority district
StatsMapped

Housing, jobs, schools, roads and population for every local authority district in the United Kingdom — six datasets from five official publishers, each with the publisher's own caveats attached.

Why the caveats matter

Every figure carries the publisher's own caveats. Where a statistic is published for a wider area than the one you clicked, or where the publisher itself flags it as unreliable, the page says so rather than quietly rounding it off.

The UK's four nations publish separately, so some figures stop at a border: house sale prices cover England and Wales, road collisions Great Britain, and pupil absence England only. An area with fewer datasets isn't missing data — its nation publishes that statistic through a different body.

Claimant count by age — Ipswich

3,965, latest July 2026.

3,965 people were claiming Universal Credit while required to seek work, or Jobseeker's Allowance. Aged 25-49 accounted for the largest share (2,320, 59%). Next largest was Aged 50+ (920). The largest year-on-year movement was Aged 16-24, 14% higher (725).

Before you use these figures

  • Not a measure of unemployment: The claimant count is a count of people claiming Universal Credit (who are required to seek work) or Jobseeker's Allowance, not a count of unemployed people. It includes some people in part-time work and excludes people who are unemployed but not claiming. ONS's Labour Force Survey is the measure of unemployment, and is a different figure.
  • Four nations, one series: Universal Credit and Jobseeker's Allowance operate UK-wide, so this series is directly comparable across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland -- unlike some UK statistics that are only published for some nations.
