How these areas were worked out
Basildon Borough Council's own register mirror lists a trading name and licence type but not a street address, so an area shown here comes from a business's own website, Facebook page or a third-party directory that gave a specific location, not from the council's register itself. That is also why some licensed Basildon home boarders are not shown on this page at all yet: no public source gave enough of an address to place them in one of the eight areas, so publishing a guessed location is not something this directory does. Every business that is shown also has a confirmed phone number, so the counts above only include businesses that could actually be reached, not every name found in research.
If you're near the edge of an area
Basildon's eight areas follow postcode districts rather than exact boundaries, so a business shown under one area, such as Vange or Wickford, may still be a short drive from a neighbouring one. If a nearby area shows no business, or fewer than you expected, it is worth checking the areas either side of it as well before assuming nothing is available near you.
