There are a range of statistical methods Multilevel and hierarchical modelling etc But we’re not using them We’re creating a synthetic ‘Income Census’ We fill each ‘area’ (LSOA)… with ALL households from the relevant region Then give them fractional weights so that key constraint variables in each area match known Census distributions
(and must be in the Census or Census-like data) Relatively few candidates in the Census

Validation against the census is excellent!

Have to be careful - many areas with large mean spend change are sparsely populated so small overall total spend change Need to account for n households
