The Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation (SIMD) is a tool for identifying the places in Scotland where people are experiencing disadvantage across different aspects of their lives. SIMD ranks 6,976 small areas, or data zones, covering the whole of Scotland from the most deprived to the least deprived and reports statistics on income, employment, health, education, access to services, crime and housing. This dataset contains travel time indicators used to calculate SIMD 2016, and SIMD 2020, Geographic Access to Services domains. Travel time indicators include drive times and public transport times. The SIMD 2020 domain combines travel time indicators with the superfast broadband indicator.
Drive times to:
Public transport times to:

SIMD 2020 data, and other resources are available on the SIMD 2020 webpage.
These include the SIMD 2020 introductory booklet that explains how we built SIMD, offers advice on what you can and can't do with SIMD, and gives some headline findings. There are also postcode and data zone look up files, a local and national share calculator, and an interactive mapping tool is also available for you to produce your own maps.

The Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation is used to help organisations invest in areas most in need. It can also be used by communities to highlight the things that matter to them, and identify opportunities to improve the lives of local people.
The SIMD 2020 introductory booklet provides an overview of SIMD and an example case study showing how SIMD has been used to identify deprivation and help inform a rural local authority’s poverty strategy.
SIMD indicators are not subject to scheduled revision. Revisions and corrections to previously published statistics are dealt with in accordance with the Scottish Government Statistician Group corporate policy statement on revisions and corrections - a copy of which is available on the Scottish Government website.
