NE11 0BU is an accessible, working-class neighbourhood located 0.8km from High Team in Gateshead. Administratively it sits within Dunston and Teams ward and the Gateshead constituency.

An affordable area with active regeneration, NE11 0BU is a high-density area of young ethnic minority families, mostly in flats. By day, the area transitions to a mining and quarrying facilities character: industrial activities connected with mining and quarrying. An average age of 44 puts this squarely in mixed-family territory — professional couples, school-age children households, and established residents all sharing the streets. 66% of homes are socially rented, reflecting the area's public housing provision and council presence. Full-time employment stands at 20% — below average for the region, consistent with the area's higher deprivation indicators.

Safety: Crime rates are low here at 41 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.

Census 2021 statistics for NE11 0BU are sourced from Output Area E00041888 (shared with 408 postcodes in this micro-neighbourhood). Property prices come from HM Land Registry.
