CO12 3BZ House Prices & Local Information

CO12 3BZ is an accessible, working-class neighbourhood located 0.4km from Bath Side in Harwich. Administratively it sits within Harwich & Kingsway ward and the Harwich and North Essex constituency.

For families considering a move, CO12 3BZ represents a transitional terrace area — improving but still facing economic pressures. By day, the area transitions to a town fringe countryside character: mainly white, agricultural workforce, on the edges of smaller towns. An average age of 39 puts this squarely in mixed-family territory — professional couples, school-age children households, and established residents all sharing the streets. 68% of properties are owner-occupied — a strong indicator of neighbourhood stability and long-term community investment.

Safety: Crime is moderate at 79 incidents per 1,000 residents — broadly typical for this type of urban area. 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.
