An affordable area with active regeneration, SR6 0AY is a striving suburban area — non-UK born households working to get ahead.

A balanced community with an average age of 42 — families, professionals, and long-term residents all well represented. 28% of homes are socially rented, reflecting the area's public housing provision and council presence.

Property: With prices averaging £37k, this is one of the more affordable postcodes in the area.
