Welcome to Waltham Forest Stats
Waltham Forest Stats allows access to stats about the borough through a single source on the Internet. It has a set of tools that can be used to view stats in tables, graphs or maps alongside each other, or conduct further analysis by comparing different data sets.
Sharing data about important issues such as employment, crime and health helps support work on improving the lives of local people so that we can build a more sustainable community.
We are continually loading new data on to the system, we are also developing a set of ward profiles and will work with relevant services to produce reports on specific themes such as children and young people and employment.
The quickest way to start viewing our stats is to click on ‘Data Views’ and follow the prompts. If you have any questions or feedback about the site then please contact the project team through the ‘contact us’ page.
Visitors to the site can currently access all resources without the need to use a login. If you wish to register you can do so following the link under the registration box, in future we will keep all registered users up to date with changes and additions to the site on a regular basis.
The following modules are available:
1. Explorer: Allows you to find out what reports and data are available on the system. You can search by keyword and retrieve details of all data and reports that are currently available. You can also download whole datasets easily.
2. Reports: Allows you to quickly produce a summary area profile report for an area of interest. Reports are built by your Administrator and summarise key characteristics of areas in text, tables and charts.
3. Advanced Reports: Offers you more flexibility than Reports to select one or more areas and the ability to customise the content of your profile report.
4. Data Views: Allows you to explore and investigate key pre-defined sets of data using an exciting combination of interactive maps and charts. You can also create custom tables for the same collections of indicators and download those of interest.
5. Advanced Data Views: Allows you to create custom tables comprising any indicators held in the system. You can then export the data or create custom maps and charts which you can use in your own presentations and reports.
