The daytime character shifts — traditional retail areas with professional services and self-employed, often in market towns and higher status areas. The 41 average age reflects a mixed, mid-career community — settling down but not yet slowing down. 76% of homes are privately rented — a strong rental market with good supply for incoming tenants. Employment levels are high (53% in full-time work) — a well-connected, economically active community.
Safety: Crime rates are high (179 per 1,000 residents) — commercial zones and transport hubs in the vicinity contribute to these figures.
