What the data tells us

1
A 30.8% gap separates the best and worst wards. Alexandra (Historical) approves 100.0% of applications while Alexandra (Pre 2_5_2002) approves just 69.2%. That's a fundamentally different planning environment.
2
High volume doesn't mean high approval. Some of the busiest wards aren't the most permissive. The number of applications a ward processes tells you nothing about how likely yours is to succeed.
3
Ward averages are a starting point, not a guarantee. Your specific outcome depends on your property, your neighbours, your proposal type and the comparable decisions near your address.
