Great practice on spatial and reporting tools! I only did the Beginner/Intermediate challenges for now. Will have to revisit the Advanced later.

This was a great challenge! It's not often we get to play with the Data Investigation tools. I attached my solution without the data to keep the size down.

I approached the 'intermediate' question by drawing a trade area around each lsoa the size of its population in metres. This didn't give me the same answer as the prompt, but it looked close-ish 😂

Edit: having now been reminded of the weighted avg tool I've got the correct way of doing it:

More reporting fun! The scatterplot becomes more interesting with a log transformation:
