Issued: 9 June 2010Community Profile - Area Summary - QuiltIssue No. 1

The 36 Community Areas (in rows) and 33 key measures (in columns) together form a broad picture of Somerset and represent thesix aims of the Somerset Sustainable Community Strategy. The Community Areas are illustrated on the map above, and are derivedfrom clusters of neighbouring wards sharing similar characteristics.

The measures were agreed in consultation with public sector partners, and were selected because the data are available and robustat the appropriate geographical level and come from reliable sources.

The purpose of this document is to highlight relative strengths and weaknesses within Somerset. The ranking shown gives noconsideration to scoring relative to a regional or national average.

By reading across the row for a specific area, the particular challenges faced by that area are shown by the red blocks and thestrengths by the greens. Grey denotes where the measure was either zero or suppressed because of very small numbers.
