CR5 1BN House Prices & Local Information

CR5 1BN is an accessible, working-class neighbourhood located 0.4km from Lacey Green in Croydon. Administratively it sits within Old Coulsdon ward and the Croydon South constituency.

An affordable area with active regeneration, CR5 1BN is a striving suburban area — non-UK born households working to get ahead. This is a settled, family-oriented neighbourhood (average age 49) — stable, lower-turnover, predominantly owner-occupied. 40% of homes are socially rented, reflecting the area's public housing provision and council presence.

Safety: Crime rates are low here at 33 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.
