The release date of the SIMD does not always correspond to the latest date of the data. Consequently, the population details for 2001 have been used for the SIMD04, 2004 for SIMD06, and 2008 for SIMD09. For the 2012 SIMD, the population mid-year estimate for 2011 has been used (note - not the Census). This table clearly shows the decline in the proportion of Glasgow's population living in a deprived area.
The same decline can be seen when a tighter definition of deprivation is used, such as the bottom 5%, or the 325 most deprived datazones in Scotland.
