- Title
Response to 'Rating places: a statistical exploration'.
- Authors
Webber, Richard
- Abstract
The author comments on the article "Rating Places: A Statistical Exploration," published in a previous issue which used statistical analysis to rate places. Topics covered include the success of the analysis on how to best structure data variables to construct composite indices, the problem with its building of league tables of places, the choice of indicators used and the interpretation of their results, and how the table can help show the relative well-being of existing residents or the incremental well-being of a move to a particular place.
