The regional ranking matters because high-pressure areas compete for attention with their nearest peers, not just with the national top ten.
West Northamptonshire sits 71 nationally by supported asylum count and 5 within East Midlands. The raw volume is 479, but the rate of 10.89 per 10,000 residents gives a cleaner sense of local intensity than the headline count on its own.
Homes for Ukraine is the largest non-asylum pathway in this area at 1,172. That matters because the local story is not just about one route family; it is about how asylum support, humanitarian schemes, and historic resettlement stack together in one place.
East Midlands as a whole currently carries 7,829 people on supported asylum, with a weighted regional rate of 15.46 per 10,000 residents. This page puts West Northamptonshire inside that wider regional pressure field instead of treating it as an isolated case.
