Dataset is complete for Scotland. Care should be taken when using this dataset with lookups to other postcode based geographies. Some postcode unit boundaries will have changed since broad rental market areas were created therefore exact match of the boundaries are unlikely.

Not yet conformant.
The Rent Officers (Housing Benefit Functions) (Amendment) Order 2008 makes reference to several requirements that each BRMA must have, such as services for health, education, recreation, banking and shopping (known as HERBS). The occurrence of these items were plotted and considered in light of the transport infrastructure both in its availability and the time taken to travel (note that cost was not taken into consideration). In addition, the spread of housing and tenancy types was taken into account. Demographic information and public opinion was used to elicit information of where populations shopped, banked etc. to define ‘neighbourhoods’ which were used as the building blocks of BRMAs. Although BRMA boundaries were not required to follow pre-existing social geographies, it was decided they should conform to postcode geographies for utility. It was not however possible to achieve all the desired splits with postcode sector boundaries therefore BRMAs can be seen as aggregations of postcode units. A revision was made to the boundaries in July 2015 to correct the area of Oban, which had incorrectly been allocated to Highland and Islands BRMA, to be within the Argyll and Bute BRMA.
