An affordable area with active regeneration, SR6 0DT is a neighbourhood with pockets of retirees, often in communal or managed housing.

Average age 58 — this is a predominantly retired and pre-retirement community, with very low mobility and high owner-occupation. 74% of homes are socially rented, reflecting the area's public housing provision and council presence. Full-time employment stands at 11% — below average for the region, consistent with the area's higher deprivation indicators.

Property: With prices averaging £165k, this is one of the more affordable postcodes in the area.
