England's Economic Deprivation Index (EDI) and Children in Income Deprived households Index (CIDI) track levels of deprivation from 1999 to 2009. The data is provided at Lower-level Super Output Area (LSOA) and Local Authority (LA) levels by the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government. These indices complement the Indices of Deprivation 2010 by enabling measurement of changes over time on a consistent basis.
