Is there any ethnicity-related data in the Economic Wellbeing Explorer?
At this time, the Economic Wellbeing Explorer does not include ethnicity-specific indicators.
Why?
Our current contextual datasets focus on:
- Household composition
- Age distribution
- Health and disability
- Housing characteristics
- Education and deprivation measures
These measures are drawn from official statistics and open data sources (e.g., the Scottish Census, Indexes of Multiple D, government registers).
While these datasets provide a rich picture of financial wellbeing and local context, they do not currently include ethnicity breakdowns.
Looking Ahead
We are always exploring opportunities to add new robust datasets that could help illustrate economic wellbeing more fully and responsibly.
If you have suggestions or would like to discuss including ethnicity-related data in future releases, please contact our team.
