SS13 1AF is an accessible, working-class neighbourhood on Chalvedon Avenue, 0.3km from Felmore in Basildon. Administratively it sits within Pitsea North West ward and the South Basildon and East Thurrock constituency.
For families considering a move, SS13 1AF represents a striving suburban area — non-UK born households working to get ahead. By day, the area transitions to a traditional countryside character: mainly white older workforce, self-employed in agriculture, forestry and fishing, with some construction. An average age of 42 puts this squarely in mixed-family territory — professional couples, school-age children households, and established residents all sharing the streets. 56% of properties are owner-occupied — a strong indicator of neighbourhood stability and long-term community investment.
Safety: Crime is moderate at 64 incidents per 1,000 residents — broadly typical for this type of urban area. Property: Average house prices are around £341k, up 0.9% year-on-year. 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 SS13 1AF are sourced from Output Area E00108200 (shared with 4 postcodes in this micro-neighbourhood). Property prices come from HM Land Registry.
