It prompts the reader to describe overall deprivation patterns, relating high and low quality of life areas to urban layouts like the CBD, inner city and outer suburbs. It also encourages reflection on whether the patterns are surprising and labeling areas to identify highest and lowest quality of life, and which additional sites would be good candidates for further fieldwork.
