Districts

Districts are a geographical boundary which PlaceCal uses to work out which PlaceCal sites a Partner should appear on. PlaceCal uses data from the UK census office to determine these boundaries, retrieved in 2019. There are currently no plans to update these boundaries when they change.

Districts are the second-smallest jurisdiction PlaceCal is configured to handle (after Wards) and usually refers to an area the size of a town or small city. In bigger cities like London, Districts relate to boroughs.
