16 DEDs are not included in the Local Development and Social Inclusion Programme (LDSIP).
The report focuses on the information which is relevant for the Partnership’s work. There are many
other information gems hidden amongst the tables (how many people cycle to work in Bohernabreena?)
but we can’t include it all, let alone interpret them. If people want to know how many people have a
computer in Kiltipper they can contact us of course but look on www pobal ie first as this site makes a

Age
The Dodder Valley area has a different age profile from the old Tallaght Partnership area; the population is getting older and incorporates some new areas
which already had significant populations over 65 years old. In most areas the largest single age group is the one between 25 and 44 years old. The group
aged between 45 and 65 is the second biggest one in many DEDs, competing with the group aged between 0 and 14 in many areas. This is in line with
regional and national trends:

Age dependency
The age profile of an area is important for the planning of several services, from schools to GPs and services for the elderly. It also provides the
information for the age dependency rate, which is a measure of “economic health” used in the calculation of deprivation in an area. Age dependency is the
percentage of people aged 0-14 plus the people aged over 65 as a percentage of the total population in an area. It indicates how many people of working
age in an area are “looking after” people who are not economically active (a higher rate is generally seen as problematic). The age dependency rate for the
Dodder Valley area is 29.1% which is slightly higher than the South Dublin County level of 28.9%, exactly the same as the Dublin rate but lower than the
national rate of 31.4%.

Lone parents
In 2006 there were 8,378 family units headed by a lone parent in the Dodder Valley area, on a total of 30,101 family units with children. Of these lone parent
households, there were 3,707 households where all children were under 15 year of age. The lone parent rate is the percentage of households with children
with at least one child under 15 headed by a lone parent, as a percentage of all households with children with at least one child under 15. The rate for the
Dodder Valley area (2006) is 27.2% while the national rate is 21.3%. The Dodder Valley DEDs show an overall trend of growth since 1991, with significant
differences between the DEDs. In 2006 more than 50% of households with children is headed by a lone parent in Fettercairn and Killinarden, around 40% of
households with children is headed by a lone parent in Avonbeg, Jobstown, Kiltipper and Tymon, but in many other DEDs the rate is about 20%. There is a
strong correlation between social housing and high lone parent rates in an area.

The Table above shows the households that rented accommodation from the County Council, as a percentage of all private households. It is clear that the same
DEDs continue to have the largest percentages of social housing (Bohernabreena, Edmondstown, Avonbeg, Fettercairn, Jobstwon, Killinarden, Kiltipper and
Tymon), but that the actual percentage is coming down since 1991. In Bohernabreena the percentage came down from 43% to 12%; in Edmondstown it halvedfrom 36 to 18%; in Avonbeg it went from 31 to 18%; in Fettercairn the decrease was from 92 to 55%; in Jobstown from 81 to 28%; in Killinarden from 84 to
54%; in Kitipper from 35 to 21%; while Tymon stayed almost stable (26 to 22%).
This picture is paralleled by the one for owner-occupied tenure, showing that in the areas with significant decreases in local authority rented accommodation,
the rate of owner-occupation has gone up since 1991. It could be argued that this is the effect of the Celtic Tiger, which increased affluence and allowed many
households to buy their house.

At the same time, private rented accommodation has become a more important feature in the Dodder Valley area. This type of tenure increased from 3.1% in
1991 to 9.7% of private households in 2006. This is still below the South Dublin County figure of 10.8% in 2006. DEDs with private rented accommodation in
the Dodder Valley area are Rathfarnham Village (18%), Saggart (15.6%), Springfield (26.9%) and Templeogue Village (21.7%).

Education
Education levels in the Dodder Valley area are on average similar to the national averages, but with significant differences between DEDs. While
In Ballyboden, Firhouse-Ballycullen, Firhouse-Knocklyon, Rathfarnham-Butterfield, Rathfranham-Hermitage, Rathfarnham-Village, Templeogue Kimmage
Manor and Templeogue Village about 50% of the population which has ceased its full-time education has Third level, the DEDs of Avonbeg, Glenview,Killinarden, Tallaght-Milbrook, Terenure-Cherryfield and Terenure-St.James all have an educated population of which about 30% has no formal / primary
education only. Naturally, these outcomes correlate with the ages that people’s formal education has stopped and they also align with the age profile in
the DEDs: areas with an older population have higher levels of “primary education only”. This is due to the “cohort effect” following introduction of free
secondary education.

Education and unemployment
The education profile of people who were unemployed (self-reported) in the Dodder Valley area is roughly similar to the national one: respectively 23.4%
and 25.8% of unemployed people have primary education only; 33.4% and 31.7% have junior certificate; 21.9% and 19.6% have Leaving cert or
equivalent; 6.7% and 7.4% have technical / vocational education and 14.5% and 15.6% of unemployed people have Third level education. Unsurprisingly,
the education levels of the unemployed population in a DED correlate with those of the population at large.

8/6/2019 Dodder Valley Census 2006 Summary
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/dodder-valley-census-2006-summary 20/29
Two things stand out from the second graphic. The first is that while unemployment decreased significantly between 1996 and 2002, this trend did not
develop further and in many DEDs even started to reverse: in 2006 there were more people unemployed than in 2002. Secondly, while unemployment
decreased, the pattern of unemployment between the different areas remained more or less the same: the DEDs with the highest unemployment in 1996
are still the DEDs with the highest unemployment levels in 2006.
It is important to realise that unemployment as a category in the census does not represent exactly the same group as for instance people on the Live
Register, because people can for instance classify themselves as unemployed without actually being in receipt of social welfare payments. Furthermore
the data are from 2006 and unemployment figures have changed significantly since then.
Nationality
The population of Dodder Valley area includes 14,756 people whose nationality is not Irish (12,839) or not stated (1,917 people), this is 9.7% - less than the 11.2% national and 14.5% Dublin percentages. Within the Dodder Valley area, the DED with by far the highest percentage non-Irish nationals is
Springfield: 26.1%, followed by Saggart: 18.1% and Ballinascorney: 16.8%. The DEDs with the smallest non-Irish populations are Templeogue-Osprey and
Terenure-Greentrees with both 3.3% and Terenure-St-James with 4.3%.

Disability and population aged 65 or over
The following graphic shows the percentage of the population with a disability (self-reported in the census) against the percentage of the population aged
over 65. Contrary to expectations, the level of disability in any DED seems to correlate negatively with the percentage of people over 65. An expectation for
this phenomenon is that people under-report disability because they ascribe certain (physical and mental) difficulties to old age.

“The Absolute Index Scores measure the actual affluence/deprivation of each area on a single fixed scale which, for 1991, has a mean of zero and
standard deviation of ten. As the economy has greatly improved over the past fifteen years, the Absolute Index Scores for most EDs have increased
significantly. Because affluence/deprivation is measured on a fixed scale, it is possible to use the Absolute Index Scores to evaluate this progress across
successive waves of data. However, if we are interested in targeting resources towards disadvantaged areas, the relative position of each area at a
specific point in time is of greater importance. This is represented by the Relative Index Score, which has been rescaled so as to have a mean of zero and
standard deviation of ten at each census wave. For example, the development of the latest round of social inclusion plans should use the 2006 Relative
Index Score as the appropriate deprivation measure, as it shows the position of any given ED relative to all other EDs in 2006.”

Both the relative and the absolute deprivation graphs shows that most Dodder Valley areas became less deprived / more well off between 1991 and
2002, but that their position deteriorated since then. This is in line with the County, Dublin-wide and national trends, but may surprise many people.
The relatively most deprived areas are Avonbeg (-22.7), Fettercairn (-17.5), Killinarden (-26.6) and Terenure-St.James (-11.5). The relatively most
affluent areas are Ballyboden (21.4), Firhouse-Ballycullen (22.7), Rathfarnham Butterfield (20.6), Rathfarnhem-Hermitage (24), Rathfarnham Village
(23.4), Kimmage Manor (19.8), Templeogue Village (21.7). These results are shown on the map below. Jobstown, one of the designated
disadvantaged areas and a RAPID community, continues to score as relatively ok (-2.5) due to the privately owned houses which have been added tothe traditional council housing estates in the area since 1996.
