This is a well-established rental postcode — residents in this subgroup are typically single or divorced eu-born migrants who live alone. many are aged 25 to 44 and are employed in sales and customer service occupations or are process, plant and machine operatives. a higher than group average proportion identify with the white ethnic group or other asian ethnicities, and many do not speak english very well or well. housing is principally in flats in the social or private rented sector, with households typically overcrowded, and home ownership rare. The daytime character shifts — white, female workforce with low qualifications, working locally.
