Research Notes

This page contains copies of short notes prepared for specific purposes such as briefings or explanations. They generally take the form of evidence on a set of issues which might help inform a view on some aspect of rural policy. They are not definitive documents in any way.

Issues involved here include the identification of economic disadvantage in rural areas from modelled income data and the considerations underlying the need for a rural_urban classification of local authorities, and the implications of describing rural areas in particular ways.
