For families considering a move, NP16 5AR represents a transitional terrace area — improving but still facing economic pressures. The daytime character shifts — mainly white older workforce, self-employed in agriculture, forestry and fishing, with some construction. The 42 average age reflects a mixed, mid-career community — settling down but not yet slowing down. 68% of properties are owner-occupied — a strong indicator of neighbourhood stability and long-term community investment.

Safety: Crime rates are low here at 12 incidents per 1,000 residents — well below average and reassuring for families. Property: Average house prices are around £311k, down 2.8% 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.
