Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner.The Survey of Londoners (SoL) is commissioned by the Greater London Authority (GLA) and began in 2018-2019. It is a self-completion survey of adults aged 16 and over living in London.
The Survey of Londoners, 2018-2019 used an online first methodology, followed by paper questionnaires, with a small number of face-to-face reminders to boost response. It covered a range of topics including measures that are key to understanding social integration, equality, diversity and inclusion, and economic fairness and food security across the city. Further information can be found on the London Datastore website. End User Licence and Special Licence data Users should note that there are two versions of the Survey of Londoners, 2018-2019 dataset. One is available under the standard End User Licence (EUL) agreement and the other is a Special Licence (SL) version (this study).

The SL data have more restrictive access conditions than those made available under the standard EUL.

Therefore, users are strongly advised to order the standard version of the data.The standard EUL version of the Survey of Londoners, 2018-2019 dataset is held under SN 8648.
