<p>Many thanks for your enquiry. Apologies for the broken link, we will get this fixed.</p>
<p>Medium level geographic data are available from the UK Data Service (via Special Licence):<br />UKHLS: <a class="external" href="https://discover.ukdataservice.ac.uk/series/?sn=2000053">https://discover.ukdataservice.ac.uk/series/?sn=2000053</a><br />BHPS: <a class="external" href="https://discover.ukdataservice.ac.uk/series/?sn=200005">https://discover.ukdataservice.ac.uk/series/?sn=200005</a></p>

<ul></ul><p>Hi Victoria,<br /> Thank you very much for your reply. I read through the links you gave me, I still have 3 more questions: <br />1. does that mean for non-UK users, we still have to fill in the request form for a special license in order to download the medium level data? The UKHLS does not differentiate the medium and lower levesl on the download page, do I just assume the medium level categories are the same as that in the BHPS?<br />2. in the document it says that category 2(a) can be available to non-UK and 2(b) will depend on the case. In what case the neighborhood level spatial data in 2(b) could be available to non-UK users?<br />3. do we just fill in 1 request to get access to all medium level geodata, or we have to request one by one for each data we need to download?</p>
<p>Thank you very much,<br />Moyin</p>
