SO14 0AN is an up-and-coming urban area on St Marys Road, 0.1km from Charlotte Place in Southampton. Administratively it sits within Bevois ward and the Southampton, Test constituency.

This is a well-established rental postcode — a university campus area — mostly students in halls, very high turnover. The daytime character shifts — science and business parks with high status workers. With an average age of just 25, this is a transient, student-oriented area — ideal for those who want a social neighbourhood, less suited to those seeking quiet stability. 89% of homes are privately rented — a strong rental market with good supply for incoming tenants. The area has a notably diverse population — 53% of residents identify as non-white, reflecting the multicultural character of this part of Southampton.

Safety: Crime rates are above average at 127 incidents per 1,000 residents — worth reviewing the crime breakdown below. 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.

Census 2021 statistics for SO14 0AN are sourced from Output Area E00190531 (shared with 26 postcodes in this micro-neighbourhood). Property prices come from HM Land Registry.
