The postcode DA16 2SP is in the LSOA area called 'Bexley 018B', in the East Wickham ward.

The geographical demographic data for DA16 2SP 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)
