High proportions of elderly people (in dark red) generally lead to higher rates of persons receiving activity/sickness compensation. There are however effects, for example from high unemployment. There is also evidence of 'contagion effects', as an increase in the number of people with activity/sickness compensation diffuses from groups of people made redundant to other segments of some local communities.
