Is anyone aware of any open UK demographic data (England would be sufficient) at full or out postcode level?

1What do you mean by "outer postcode"? Postcode area, district, sector, something else? ONS have demographics by Lower Super Output Area: ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/populationandmigration/…– Dan WinchesterCommented Sep 5, 2017 at 21:14

1Outer postcodes are the first 2-4 characters.– cs0815Commented Sep 5, 2017 at 21:16

1That part of the postcode is also known as the postcode district, outbound code, or outcode. I'm not aware of a dataset that gives you exactly what you need, but ONS has the demographic data by LSOA, and both postcode district and LSOA boundaries are available, so if you are handy with GIS you could approximate the demographics for postcode district. Happy to flesh this out in an answer if that helps. You could also contact the ONS directly and see if they have the data you need.– Dan WinchesterCommented Sep 6, 2017 at 6:33

1Thanks England would actually be sufficient. Populations size is a good start but debt levels, unemployment rates etc would be needed too.– cs0815Commented Sep 6, 2017 at 7:33
