Figures on this page cover the eight London postal areas (E, EC, N, NW, SE, SW, W and WC). That is the London post town rather than the full Greater London boundary, so outer boroughs on postcodes such as BR (Bromley), CR (Croydon), HA (Harrow), IG (Ilford), KT (Kingston upon Thames), RM (Romford), SM (Sutton), TW (Twickenham) and UB (Uxbridge) sit outside these figures.
