Running Comparisons
========================================================
It may be useful to know the number of groups present (as above), but we can illuminate this information by testing out how frequently different types of groups appear in these areas.
Pubs
========================================================
We can compare this frequency against some other features. The ordnance survey tells us that total pubs in Scotland are:
```
[1] 3360
```
Pubs
========================================================
The total numnber of Pubs located within these deprived areas noted above is:
```
[1] 0.1505952
```
Churches
========================================================
To take another example, there are (according to the Ordnance Survey), the following number of places of worship in Scotland:
```
[1] 4468
```
Of all these, our deprived areas have:
```
[1] 0.123769
```
Retail
========================================================
Another example we can look at is retail grocery stores. A geospatial company called GeoLytix publishes a complete set of British retailers on a regular basis. As of last November, they indicated that there were the following number of grocery stores in Scotland:
```
[1] 1408
```
Within our deprived areas, this represents
```
[1] 0.1477273
```
Retail, ctd.
========================================================
We can break this down by brand to get a more interesting indication. There are the following number of Morrison's brand stores in Scotland:
```
[1] 60
```
Of these, the following percentage are located in deprived areas:
```
[1] 0.25
```
Retail, ctd.
========================================================
We find the predictable contrast by turning to Sainsburys. There are the following number of Sainsburys stores in Scotland:
```
[1] 101
```
Represented in our deprived areas are just:
```
[1] 0.06930693
```
Retail, ctd.
========================================================
Sadly, the best bellweather of a deprived area in Scotland isn't any of the above, but rather pawnbrokers and check cashing stores. There are the following number of pawnbrokers:
```
[1] 134
```
...and check cashing stores:
```
[1] 17
```
Retail, ctd.
========================================================
Representation in our areas of of deprivation is, for check cashing establishments:
```
[1] 0.2352941
```
and pawnbrokers:
```
[1] 0.3283582
```
Pawnbrokers Mapped

Targetting possile community anchors
========================================================
I've put together two different resources for DTAS to access this data:
- [On our Carto platform: a "slippy map""](https://carto.mapping.community/user/mapcomm-admin/builder/98dbb620-75d3-11e7-8dd5-005056372088/embed)
- A table of groups (forthcoming report!)
Discussion
========================================================
- What other kinds of data and analysis can you see being of value to you for strategic decision making?
- Possible demos:
- Common Ground Map
- Carto Platform
- QGIS
Bonus: Social Media Use
========================================================
- Research question: how do community groups use social media?
