The postcode CT18 7DR is in the LSOA area called 'Shepway 001B', in the North Downs East ward.

The geographical demographic data for CT18 7DR has been extracted from the Office of National Statistics, responsible for the collection and publication of UK statistics relating to population, society and economy. (ONS)
