Access to free-of-charge cash withdrawals
Target areas
In December 2006 just over 1,700 Super Output Areas were identified as having no free cash machines and therefore priority target areas for new free-to-use ATMs if suitable sites could be found. Super Output Areas are a geographic hierarchy defined by the Office of National Statistics. There are 41,766 across the whole of the UK. See www.statistics.gov.uk/geography/soa.asp.
