The graph above highlights trends in the proportion of the population living near vacant and derelict land. In Scotland as a whole the proportion of the population living near derelict sites has remained fairly static over the last 7 years.  The trend is similar in Glasgow, which has by far the highest proportion of people living near derelict sites out of the four major cities - about 6 out of ten people.  However, the rate of people living near derelict sites has decreased in Aberdeen and Edinburgh in recent years.
