Clapham and Brixton Hill is a compact inner-south London constituency within Lambeth. It includes much of Clapham, Brixton Hill, Streatham Hill and neighbouring residential areas between them. The seat is almost entirely urban, with dense streets, terraces and flats surrounding several busy local centres. Clapham Common provides one of its largest open spaces, while major road, Underground and rail routes connect the constituency with central London and other parts of south London. Clapham and Brixton each have distinctive commercial and cultural centres just within or beside the constituency, while the residential neighbourhoods between them form a largely continuous built-up area.
Election data comes from UK Parliament. Turnout percentage is calculated by Project Open Gov from Parliament's turnout and electorate figures.

Household composition
A broad view of household types in this constituency. Project Open Gov uses the four broad groups supplied by the Commons Library so the presentation remains consistent across the UK.
44,712 householdsCensus 2021
One-person households30.5% · 13,624 households
Families with dependent children21.0% · 9,368 households
Other single-family households26.9% · 12,035 households
Other household types21.7% · 9,685 households
Household-composition figures come from the Commons Library constituency dataset. The source uses census data and Project Open Gov displays its broad household groups rather than attempting to harmonise the detailed categories itself. View household-composition source ↗
Disability and day-to-day activities
The source records whether day-to-day activities are limited and uses separate person-level tables for England & Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.
104,988 people in the source baseCensus 2021Source comparison: England & Wales
Day-to-day activities limited a lot5.0% · 5,202 people
Day-to-day activities limited a little7.6% · 7,930 people
Not disabled under the Equality Act87.5% · 91,856 people
Comparison note: the workbook uses different source terminology across the UK: England & Wales uses “Disabled under the Equality Act”, while Scotland and Northern Ireland use “Disabled” / “Non-disabled”. Project Open Gov therefore preserves the source categories and does not present them as one single like-for-like UK legal definition.
Disability figures come from the Commons Library constituency workbook. This profile uses the person-level tables only; the workbook also contains separate household-level disability tables which are not used here. View disability source ↗
