28% of Luton's population are from different cultural and ethnic backgrounds; the main groups are Pakistani, Bangladeshi, Indian, African-Caribbean and Eastern European. Luton is an area of high deprivation; consequently our local population display diseases and conditions are more usually associated with those of an inner city area.
