description: <DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>Intermediate zones are a statistical geography that sit between data zones and local authorities, created for use with the Scottish Neighbourhood Statistics (SNS) programme. Intermediate zones are used for the dissemination of statistics that are not suitable for release at the data zone level because of the sensitive nature of the statistics, or for reasons of reliability. Intermediate Zones were designed to meet constraints on population thresholds (2,500 - 6,000 household residents), to nest within local authorities (as they were in 2001), and to be built up from data zones. The aim was also to build intermediate zones by grouping together data zones with similar social characteristics, to have fairly compact shape and to take into account physical boundaries. Intermediate zones represent a relatively stable geography that can be used to analyse change over time, with changes only occurring after a Census. </SPAN><SPAN>This dataset represents the </SPAN><SPAN>initial release of </SPAN><SPAN>intermediate zones created following the 20</SPAN><SPAN>0</SPAN><SPAN>1 Census, with 1,2</SPAN><SPAN>35</SPAN><SPAN> intermediate zones covering the whole of Scotland.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV>
