Posed a question about the entry
 
Line 1:
Why is his middle name commonly spelled as Amschel, when it is actually Anschel? The inscriptions on his children's graves spell it in Hebrew as אנשיל.
'''Inner London''' is technically a term for the central part of [[Greater London]], in contrast to [[Outer London]].
Many of the children have Mayer in their names, so it doesn't seem logical that this is a given name. Could it be the family name in Hebrew, to which the Rothschild name was appended?
 
It is also a term that is less precisely used to describe the poor areas of [[Central London]] outside the City of London, Westminster and Kensington as in: 'poverty/unemployment/good housing/good schooling is a major problem in Inner London'.

For the purposes of the [[Inner London Education Authority]], it consisted of [[London Borough of Camden|Camden]], the [[City of London|City]], [[London Borough of Greenwich|Greenwich]], [[London Borough of Hackney|Hackney]], [[London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham|Hammersmith and Fulham]], [[London Borough of Islington|Islington]], [[Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea|Kensington and Chelsea]], [[London Borough of Lambeth|Lambeth]], [[London Borough of Lewisham|Lewisham]], [[London Borough of Southwark|Southwark]], [[London Borough of Tower Hamlets|Tower Hamlets]], [[London Borough of Wandsworth|Wandsworth]], [[City of Westminster|Westminster]].
 
These [[London boroughs]], along with [[North Woolwich]], which was ceded to the [[London Borough of Newham]], make up the entirety of the old [[County of London]].
 
The term is also used in a variety of other contexts with different meanings. The [[Office for National Statistics]] and the [[Census]] uses the term, including [[London Borough of Haringey|Haringey]] and [[London Borough of Newham|Newham]] in Inner London, but [[London Borough of Greenwich|Greenwich]] in Outer London. This is also used by [[Eurostat]] at [[NUTS:UK|NUTS]] level 2.
 
Generally Inner London phone numbers have the form 020-7xxx-xxxx whilst Outer London ones have 020-8xxx-xxxx. The next range of numbers to be released in London which are 020-3xxx-xxxx will not be split in this way and furthermore numbers in the existing ranges will be allocated throughout London.
 
The [[London Borough of Newham]] is seeking recognition as an Inner London borough for central government grants, as this would have financial benefits for the Borough. It is not currently considered an Inner London Borough as it did not form part of the original pre-1965 County of London.
 
Inner London is the [[Economy of the European Union#10 Richest areas|richest area]] in the [[European Union]], [[Gross domestic product|GDP]] per capita is £45,540 (€66,761).
 
==Historical population==
Please note: Figures here are for the ONS's Inner London (in its 2001 limits), whose land area is 319 km&sup2; (123 sq. miles). Figures before 1971 have been reconstructed by the Office for National Statistics based on past censuses in order to fit the 2001 limits. Figures from 1981 onward are midyear estimates (revised as of 2004), which are more accurate than the censuses themselves, known to underestimate the population of London.
