B36 0BD House Prices & Local Information

B36 0BD is an accessible, working-class neighbourhood located 0.8km from Kingshurst in Birmingham. Administratively it sits within Smith's Wood ward and the Meriden constituency.

An affordable area with active regeneration, B36 0BD is a high-density area of young ethnic minority families, mostly in flats. The daytime character shifts — white, female workforce with low qualifications, working locally. The 37 average age reflects a mixed, mid-career community — settling down but not yet slowing down. 54% of homes are socially rented, reflecting the area's public housing provision and council presence. Full-time employment stands at 22% — below average for the region, consistent with the area's higher deprivation indicators.

Safety: Crime rates are low here at 47 incidents per 1,000 residents — well below average and reassuring for families. The Index of Multiple Deprivation places this area in the most deprived 20% nationally — this often means more affordable prices and active local authority investment, but also fewer amenities and higher benefit dependency.
