Distribution of income by county and district

You asked

I am looking at the National Statistics Table 3.14a which details the number of individuals, mean and median income by county and district. I would like to know if the full distribution (for each percentile point) is available with the same geographic breakdown? Ideally I would like to receive it for every year between 2000 and today.

Thank you for your request regarding the distribution of income by county and district from 2000 to the present day.

The Annual Survey of Hours and Earnings (ASHE) is the most comprehensive source of earnings information in the United Kingdom, which is based on a 1% sample of employee jobs taken from HM Revenue and Customs' Pay As You Earn (PAYE) records.

We publish earnings figures by work-based region to local and unitary authority level, including all percentile estimates, in ASHE table 7 on our website:
