Property: With prices averaging £129k, this is one of the more affordable postcodes in the area, up 19.1% year-on-year. 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.
