HD4 5BN is an accessible, working-class neighbourhood on Park Road West, 0.3km from Johnny Moore's Hill in Huddersfield. Administratively it sits within Crosland Moor and Netherton ward and the Colne Valley constituency.

This is a strong family neighbourhood — a classic working-class terrace area — densely packed streets, low ethnic diversity. The daytime character shifts — ethnically mixed self-employed with no fixed place of work in construction, transport, and storage. The 36 average age reflects a mixed, mid-career community — settling down but not yet slowing down. 63% of properties are owner-occupied — a strong indicator of neighbourhood stability and long-term community investment. The area has a notably diverse population — 37% of residents identify as non-white, reflecting the multicultural character of this part of Kirklees.

Safety: Crime is moderate at 55 incidents per 1,000 residents — broadly typical for this type of urban area. Property: With prices averaging £79k, this is one of the more affordable postcodes in the 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.
