PL1 1LB House Prices & Local Information

PL1 1LB is an up-and-coming urban area located 0.3km from Plymouth in Plymouth. Administratively it sits within St Peter and the Waterfront ward and the Plymouth, Sutton and Devonport constituency.

An affordable area with active regeneration, PL1 1LB is a university campus area — mostly students in halls, very high turnover. By day, the area transitions to a eat, drink and be merry character: areas dominated by food and entertainment. At just 23 years average, the population skews very young — high mobility, strong rental demand, and a dynamic street-level atmosphere. 61% of homes are socially rented, reflecting the area's public housing provision and council presence. Full-time employment stands at 1% — below average for the region, consistent with the area's higher deprivation indicators.

Safety: Crime rates are high (248 per 1,000 residents) — commercial zones and transport hubs in the vicinity contribute to these figures. 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.
