BBC Constituency Profile:
Among the most ethnically diverse constituencies, Streatham - which covers parts of Clapham, Balham, Brixton, Tulse Hill and Streatham - is in the south London borough of Lambeth. Only 58.2% of residents are white and it has among the most mixed race and black residents in the country, according to the 2011 Census. It has Polish, Portuguese and Hispanic communities.
The bulk of residents are aged 25-44, with relatively few pensioners. Although it is a residential area, it is more popular with young workers than families - with good transport links into central London. Many residents rent and there is a large social housing sector. Streatham High Road is home to over 400 businesses. A £26m ice rink and leisure centre opened in November 2013, part of continuing investment.
The population is highly qualified and a high percentage are in full-time work. Labour's Chuka Umunna won this seat in 2010 - with a 3,259 majority. The Lib Dems came second.
