You are here SWO Environment Local Profile
The South West Observatory Environment module is attempting to catalogue all local profiles that have been, or are being created in the South West. There are currently 661 of these profiles which contain a range of information about the people who live in an area, and about the area itself. Click here to view profiles for your area.
Profiles may be created for all kinds of sites; urban areas such as towns and cities, political areas such as wards, districts and counties, and other sites of interest such as river catchments, estuaries, National Parks and AONBs. The purpose of the Profiles is to supply information on a wide range of subjects, including:
- Population
- Health
- Employment
- Local crime rates
- Business and industry
- Housing
- Education
- Land use
- Natural environment and natural resources
- Built environment
- Transport
- Recreation and access.
The Profiles are intended to assist local communities with their information needs, whether it be to identify issues of concern, to assist in securing funding for local projects, to compare the area with others, or for general interest.
