Information
Deprivation map
The map on this page shows the Catrine parish area with areas considered “deprived” coloured red, orange and yellow.
This information is taken from the Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation (SIMD) using figures from 2020 and gives you some information about your parish. You can find more details about the SIMD in the “SIMD Definitions” tab. However, this information is not an end in itself but a starting place for you to explore. In identifying which indicators of deprivation are particularly relevant, and in which parts of the parish, it can open questions about how the church can engage with those issues in the community.
The Priority Areas team and implementation group are responsible for the support, development and co-ordination of the Church’s work within its poorest communities. However, it is important to recognise that priority for the poorest and the most marginalised is the gospel imperative facing the whole Church, not just the Church in the poorest places. To find out about their work and how they can support your congregation or community, visit their web pages, or contact priorityareas@churchofscotland.org.uk.

SIMD Definitions
Deprivation in Scotland is measured through the Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation (SIMD). The SIMD ranks all small areas (called Data Zones) in Scotland from 1 (most deprived) to 6,976 (least deprived).
If an area is identified as ‘deprived’ this can relate to people having a low income, but it can also mean fewer resources or opportunities. The types of deprivation included are:
- Income
- Employment
- Education
- Health
- Access to Services
- Crime
- Housing
The SIMD is the Scottish Government’s standard approach to identifying areas of multiple deprivation in Scotland. It can help improve understanding and allow effective targeting of funding and policies to tackle multiple deprivation. More information about the SIMD is available here, and maps are available here.
The “small areas” used here are Data Zones (DZs), produced from the 2011 Census by National Records of Scotland (NRS). They are geographical areas with 500 to 1,000 people living in each one. More information about Data Zones is available here.
In the maps shown in this profile, areas coloured red have SIMD ranks of between 1 and 349 - the 5% most deprived DZs in Scotland. Areas coloured orange are in the next most deprived 5%, that is the 6-10% most deprived areas (ranks 350 to 698) and those coloured yellow are in the next most deprived 10%, that is the 11-20% most deprived areas (ranks 699 to 1395). Areas within the 80% least deprived are left transparent.
