Poverty In Your Area

Ealing

Ealing records a high deprivation score relative to the London average and has the 17th highest level of child poverty in London (out of the 32 boroughs in the capital). In addition, inequalities in skills and income levels causes social polarisation to exist within the borough.
In particular, problems of disadvantage in crime, income and health are significant drivers of deprivation in the borough¹.
