SA1 1HW House Prices & Local Information

SA1 1HW is an accessible, working-class neighbourhood located 0.3km from Penre Estyll in Swansea. Administratively it sits within Castle ward and the Swansea West constituency.

An affordable area with active regeneration, SA1 1HW is a high-density area of young ethnic minority families, mostly in flats. The daytime character shifts — large schools, colleges, and universities, nationally widespread. The 41 average age reflects a mixed, mid-career community — settling down but not yet slowing down. 68% of homes are socially rented, reflecting the area's public housing provision and council presence.

Safety: Crime rates are low here at 45 incidents per 1,000 residents — well below average and reassuring for families. 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.
