CF3 4JD is an accessible, working-class neighbourhood on Ball Road, 0.3km from Llanrumney in Cardiff. Administratively it sits within Llanrumney ward and the Cardiff South and Penarth constituency.

An affordable area with active regeneration, CF3 4JD is a striving suburban area — non-UK born households working to get ahead. The 39 average age reflects a mixed, mid-career community — settling down but not yet slowing down. 29% of homes are socially rented, reflecting the area's public housing provision and council presence.

Safety: Crime rates are low here at 31 incidents per 1,000 residents — well below average and reassuring for families. Property: Average house prices are around £195k. 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.
