PR8 1DH is an up-and-coming urban area located 0.1km from Southport in Southport. Note: this is a large-user or commercial postcode — residential population data may be limited. Administratively it sits within Duke's ward and the Southport constituency.

PR8 1DH is a diverse urban neighbourhood with mixed household types and languages. Work and footfall patterns mark this as a market squares zone — traditional retail areas with professional services and self-employed, often in market towns and higher status areas.
