Open Geodemographics


If you live in London or Bristol you can check out how you are classified according to Open Geodemographics. Apparently I'm a G1 Affordable Transition and likely to be a recent migrant from the EU or a student.

Open Geodemographics is an open UK demographic classification system created from census data. Parallel has used the newly released detailed building data from OS Open Data to map the Open Geodemographics Output Area Classifications to individual building level in London and Bristol. This means that if you live in either city you can look-up your house on the map and see how you are classified by Open Geodemographics.

If you live outside London or Bristol in the UK you can view your Temporal Output Area Classification on the Temporal OAC Map.
