An average age of 30 points to a young professional and early-career population — ambitious, mobile, and predominantly renting. 63% of homes are socially rented, reflecting the area's public housing provision and council presence. Full-time employment stands at 21% — below average for the region, consistent with the area's higher deprivation indicators.
