Of the 1,178,421 companies formed in the UK between January 2022 and September 2023 at their own address, 51% were still on the register three years later and 35% had filed trading accounts. Between councils that ranges from 35% to 72%, and the map is the map of deprivation. Every council and every Westminster constituency is below, with a downloadable table.

What the numbers measure

Companies House publishes only the current register, so "how many companies formed in 2022 are still going" cannot be read off it: the ones that have gone are gone. Salenovo rebuilt the full cohort — every company formed in the period, dissolved ones included — and measured each one at exactly three years old. Two corrections make the council figures honest. Companies registered at mass-formation or virtual-office addresses (15% of the total, four-fifths of Camden's) are left out, because their fate says more about the agent than the place; that is why Camden and Hackney, which top every raw league table, sit mid-table here. And a company counts as trading only if it has filed non-dormant accounts, which excludes property vehicles kept alive for nothing as well as businesses that closed. The figures agree with the Office for National Statistics' business demography where the two can be compared — rank correlation 0.58 by council, 0.69 by region, the same councils at the bottom — and the method page sets out why the two are different measures.

Deprivation, not sector

still on the register at three yearsfiled trading accounts

Within England the pattern is deprivation. Companies formed in the most deprived tenth of neighbourhoods are still on the register three years later 40% of the time and have filed trading accounts 26% of the time; in the least deprived tenth, 61% and 43%. The obvious objection — that deprived areas simply form more of the kinds of company that fail, online retail and freight rather than consultancies — explains about a quarter of the gap and none of its shape: giving every decile the national mix of sectors leaves 42% against 58%, and the gradient appears inside every one of the twelve largest sectors, holding companies included. A company formed in the most deprived tenth is about 41% less likely to reach trading than one formed in the least deprived tenth, whatever it does.

The register cannot say whether a company in a deprived area failed because the business failed or because the founder never got it off the ground; most of the missing companies never filed anything at all. It is a finding about the odds of getting a business started, not about the quality of the businesses that do start.

Caveats

Own-address companies only, measured at exactly 36 months, so cohorts are compared at the same age. About 4% of companies in the period have a registered-office postcode that no longer resolves — nearly all of them companies Companies House moved to its default address before striking off — and they are excluded, which understates death rates by about one and a half points nationally and by an unknown amount in the councils those companies were registered in. "Trading" is a register accounts category, not turnover. Deprivation deciles are England's Index of Multiple Deprivation; Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland use their own indices and are not pooled. Full method, and the comparison with the ONS: /method/.
