An affordable area with active regeneration, S2 1DG is a mixed area of service workers, students and families in semi-detached housing.

The area has a notably diverse population — 32% of residents identify as non-white, reflecting the multicultural character of this part of Sheffield. Full-time employment stands at 16% — below average for the region, consistent with the area's higher deprivation indicators.
