I’ve a new piece up at Liberal Conspiracy on happiness, tolerance and migration data. Which is fun if you like that sort of thing.

The 'who agree' one is strangely uncorrelated. If you remove London the 0% rises to 16% (which is an r-square of 4%). Some of the rest are perhaps more interesing (these are correlation coefficients) – the 2nd one particularly so…
-68% % who think that older people in their local area get the help and support they need to continue to live at home for as long as they want to
-62% % who feel they belong to their immediate neighbourhood
-61% % aged 65 and over who are satisfied with both home and neighbourhood
-51% % who would say that they have been treated with respect and consideration by their local public services in the last year
-38% % who are satisfied with their local area as a place to live
-19% % who feel informed about what to do in the event of a large-scale emergency
-19% % who have given unpaid help at least once per month over the last 12 months
0% % who agree that their local area is a place where people from different backgrounds get on well together
11% % who agree that in their local area parents take enough responsibility for the behaviour of their children
23% % who agree that the police and other local public services are successfully dealing with anti-socal behaviour and crime in their local area
30% % who say their health is good or very good
36% % who think there is a problem with people not treating each other with respect and consideration in their local area
37% % who agree that the police and other local public services seek people's views about anti-social behaviour and crime in their local area
45% % who think that drug use or drug dealing is a problem in their local area
46% % who think that drunk and rowdy behaviour is a problem in their local area
50% % who think that anti-social behaviour is a problem in their local area
53% % who have been involved in decisions that affect the local area in the past 12 months
78% % who agree that they can influence decisions in their local area
[removing London reduces all of these but not by a huge amount and doesn't really change the conclusions]
