Royal Mail Data: The gazetteer data used in the LocalView address search tool is based on the Royal Mail Postcode Address File (PAF). The PAF ‘web-click’ licence agreement provides access to national and/or authority datasets.

Location Data: Whilst every care has been taken in the compilation of datasets used in the LocalView ‘Location Details’ search tool, information such as school catchment areas and conservation areas, are only intended as a general guide.

Service Data: The distance used in the LocalView ‘Find The Nearest’ and ‘In The Area’ search tools are defined ‘as the crow flies’.

Location/Service Data for Schools: This information is only intended as a general guide and whilst every care has been taken in the compilation of the school catchment areas datasets used in the LocalView ‘Location Details’ search, it should not be relied upon as a substitute for formal advice from the departments of the City of York Council and its partners. Distances to 'nearest' schools on this system uses 'as the crow flies' measurements. This is different from the method of measurement that is used in determining the allocation of school places, which is 'nearest safe walking route.' Therefore, distances available on this system should not be used to ascertain the likelihood of obtaining a school place based on distance to a school.
