Hackney Borough Profile

The Hackney Borough Profile has been produced to provide key data about the borough. It updates the previous borough profile produced in 2006.

Published chapters:

To understand the needs of our communities and put in place the projects, programmes and services that we will need to make Hackney a better place we must have good quality research and information. The profile is intended to support policy developers, planners and decision makers across the public, private and voluntary and community sectors with the information and analysis they need. It is also intended as a source of information about the borough for wider public interest.

The profile draws strongly on official statistics which allows comparisons to be made between the borough, neighbouring boroughs, the London region and England and Wales more generally. It also allows more detailed internal comparisons between wards and smaller areas to create statistical pictures of Hackney's local neighbourhoods. Official statistics and census data is supported by a large range of other sources and the most up-to-date information has been used throughout. We hope that this publication will be of value to users and that it will be complemented in the future by further analysis and exploration that will further build our understanding of our borough and its communities.
