Places per 100 under-fives is registered capacity at nurseries, pre-schools and childminders across Salford, divided by the children aged 0 to 4 who live there at the 2021 Census. It compares areas; it is not a count of free places today. It also leaves out the 94 school nursery classes across Salford, because nobody publishes how many children they take.
