Quote from Lord Cholmondeley

By George! I'm frightfully disappointed to place you rather firmly at the lower end of society. You seem like such a delightful old bean, but I'm afraid mummy would not let me become associated with riffraff from Leeds. Even Tinshill is a classier place to live. Honestly, old bean, you're better off leaving West Yorkshire as soon as you possibly can. Have you thought about moving to a decent area, such as Holt Park? I've heard there are a few nicer terraced properties up for sale in your price range there.

What a frightful shame that you missed out on the chance of obtaining a basic education. My daughter Arabella was telling me the other day that she played hockey against the ghastly children from Roundhay School in Leeds North East. Perhaps when you get your inheritance you'll be able to convince the authorities that your children are of a higher social status than you are. Still, I've heard that McDonalds in Leeds are seeking new staff, so it's not all bad news. Chin up, old bean.

I say, what a frightful inconvenience living in Leeds. What a beastly area. Jeeves had to drive the Bentley through a red light just to avoid stopping in such a deprived area. Poor chap. All those council houses certainly bring out the worst in people, wouldn't you say?

Jolly sad to hear you need to head down to the pawn brokers in Tinshill to afford your family holiday at Butlins this year. My housekeeper has told me that there is a vacancy in my kitchen staff. Do let me know if you're interested, old chap. We would be delighted to offer you a minimum wage. Just don't steal the family silver. It's been handed down for centuries and it's worth a small fortune. If you want to discuss, then meet me at Cookridge Hall Golf Club in Leeds sometime soon. Just don't talk to the other members, in case they think we're chums.

By jove, hasn't this been fun. Cheerio for now.

Oh, before I shoot off and get squiffy with my chums at the country club, if you are curious to find out more about your neighbourhood, then grab yourself a copy of a ZoomLocal Neighbourhood Report. Those clever chaps can give you a proper report that reveals everything you need to know about your neighbourhood. Chop chop.

I say. Isn't this jolly. Thanks for stopping by. I do hope that you have enjoyed my rather outrageous little quiz today.

If you're perusing this rather spiffing website and wonder what on earth all this nonsense is all about, then rest assured that although I have used official data from official sources to compile my analysis of your neighbourhood, it's all good fun.

Of course, it's all rather silly stuff, and I do hope my tittle-tattling has been taken as it is intended - a little lighthearted fun instead of watching that ghastly Eastenders on the television box on your Ikea sofa.

If you are curious to discover more about your neighbourhood area (to find out where the riff-raff are), do pop along to ZoomLocal.co.uk, old bean.

This marvelous website is a super place to download even more information about any neighbourhood in good old Blighty.

Where do I get this poppycock?

Ahhh, now you're asking all the right questions, my chum.

You'll be rather pleased to hear that although this tomfoolery is just a bit of fun, the information behind How Posh am I is rather more authoritative.

When you furnish me with your postcode I cross-reference this information with millions of records of official information in my vast (and rather superior) brain. I am, after all, part of society's intelligentsia.

The information I use to find out how posh you are is derived from local authorities, the Office of National Statistics (ONS), Census 2011 records, and other rather insightful databases that enable me to judge you and your social class... by your postcode alone!

The method behind my madness

Before you get your knickers in a twist, rest assured that I cannot identify any personal information about you - or others - in your neighbourhood. Each postcode I evaluate for society's riff-raff may contain dozens of properties; perhaps more if you are unfortunate enough to live in a frightful terraced house.

Do head over to www.zoomlocal.co.uk if you are interested in a more professional insight into your neighbourhood. These chaps are the renowned experts in producing Neighbourhood Reports that are a marvelous help when deciding where to move house to. Because we all should strive towards a better social class, what what.


ZoomLocal

ZoomLocal's spiffing Neighbourhood Reports tell you everything there is to know about any postcode, including demographics, crime rates, house prices, environmental concerns, local transport, and much more old chap.

It takes away the guesswork and risk of moving house to a bad neighbourhood. Both you and I know this is frightfully important to avoid the riff-raff.

Right, I'm orf. Don't forget to tell someone else about this spiffing website to inspire them towards a higher social rank too. Toodle pip.

For the frightfully dull.

My good wife Lady Elizabeth has quite rightly informed me that the more perspicacious of you may be interested in the data behind my analysis of your social standing.

Of course, without research it's extremely tiresome for me to determine your social standing without referring to the odd snippet of data.

So, without further ado, here are the individual scores for income, employment, education et cetera.

As well as cross-referencing your neighbourhood with ONS data, I also analyse other records in ZoomLocal's voluminous amounts of data to allow me to determine how posh you are.

Using my vastly superior mind, I can then determine your neighbourhood rank, and of course establish your social class.

By jove, it's clever stuff. Go ahead, take a gander at how it's done:

Have a good nosey

Curious to know what other peasant's posh scores are?

Well, my old chum, here's a list of the most recent postcodes that the riff-raff have been daft enough to ask me about.

Go ahead, have a good gander. Feel free to chuckle at other people's misfortunes, why don't you.

I've also got a live leaderboard to see if any of you oiks think you can match my perfect score of 100%.
