This is a settled, family-oriented neighbourhood (average age 46) — stable, lower-turnover, predominantly owner-occupied. 47% of homes are socially rented, reflecting the area's public housing provision and council presence. Full-time employment stands at 23% — below average for the region, consistent with the area's higher deprivation indicators.
