The 12 Tribes of English Youth

Judith Watson, Danny Dorling, John Pritchard

This page presents some research we have undertaken into 18-21 year-olds and what they are doing with their lives.

The main purpose of this page is to enable interpretation of the cartograms we use in the paper. An example is shown below. Hover the mouse pointer over the map for information about the location of each tract. The information shown is tract name, and in brackets the Local Authority that it is in (or in some cases that the majority of it is in).

Cartograms

• 1: Top Tribe by absolute number
• 2: Top Tribe excluding full-time work, absolute numbers
• 3: Tribe highest proportion relative to national average

Cartogram 3: Tribe with highest LQ (highest proportion relative to national average)
