It's all in the statistics (From Oxford Mail)

It's all in the statistics (From Oxford Mail)

DEPRIVATION figures tell a tale of two cities, with parts of south-east Oxford falling further behind, but areas in the north of the city continue to prosper.

An area of Northfield Brook has the highest deprivation score in the city and is among the most deprived 10 per cent in England.

Part of Summertown is the least deprived, and is among the least deprived 20 per cent of areas nationally.

In total, 12 areas of the city are among the 20 per cent most deprived neighbourhoods in the country. They are concentrated in the south-east of the city including Barton, Blackbird Leys and Northfield Brook.
