Local context

About this constituency

Droitwich and Evesham covers a broad part of Wychavon in Worcestershire. It is centred on the towns of Droitwich Spa and Evesham and includes numerous villages stretching between and around them, including Broadway, Badsey, Offenham, Ombersley and communities near the county’s eastern edge. Droitwich lies closer to Worcester and Birmingham, while Evesham is the main centre of the Vale of Evesham farther south-east. Much of the constituency is rural, with farmland, orchards and villages separating the two towns. The landscape ranges from the lower Severn-side plain to the Vale of Evesham and the edge of the Cotswolds around Broadway.

Home ownership and renting

Housing tenure shows how households in this constituency described their home at the most recent census.

43,897 householdsCensus 2021
Home owners69.0% · 30,291 households
Private renters13.5% · 5,924 households
Social renters16.2% · 7,102 households
Other tenure1.3% · 580 households

“Other tenure” combines shared ownership and households recorded as living rent free.

Housing-tenure figures come from the most recent census: 2021 in England, Wales and Northern Ireland and 2022 in Scotland. View housing-tenure source ↗

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.

43,901 householdsCensus 2021
One-person households27.7% · 12,178 households
Families with dependent children26.3% · 11,527 households
Other single-family households42.8% · 18,807 households
Other household types3.2% · 1,389 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.

101,984 people in the source baseCensus 2021Source comparison: England & Wales
Day-to-day activities limited a lot6.8% · 6,901 people
Day-to-day activities limited a little10.5% · 10,737 people
Not disabled under the Equality Act82.7% · 84,346 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 ↗
