BBC Constituency Profile:
Situated in south London is the seat of Dulwich and West Norwood. Traversed by the South Circular Road, it is a constituency of two halves. On one side there is Dulwich Village, with its two prestigious private schools and million pound properties - Margaret Thatcher was a former resident. On the other hand, the area includes estates like Angell Town.
The seat is ethnically diverse: one in four is Afro-Caribbean - the 10th highest proportion of all constituencies in England and Wales, according to ONS 2011 Census figures. A third of the population lives in social housing; one in 10 is a lone parent. At 47.6%, it has the 15th highest proportion of people with a degree.
Labour former culture secretary Tessa Jowell, an MP since 1992, is standing down. In 2010, she held the seat with 46.6% of the votes; Liberal Democrats got 27.2%, Conservatives 22.2% and Greens 2.6%.
