All 153 English upper-tier authorities, ranked by adult social care spend per adult. Click any column heading to sort. Search or filter by region. The “vs need + cost” and need-adjusted rank come from the full regression (age, deprivation, provider cost, working-age need); 1 = spends most above what need and cost predict. Data underpins CAA Paper One: Adult Social Care Funding Reform.
