RECTORY ROAD, SS13 1AG House Prices & Local Information

An affordable area with active regeneration, SS13 1AG is a high-density area of young ethnic minority families, mostly in flats. The daytime character shifts — mainly white older workforce, self-employed in agriculture, forestry and fishing, with some construction. With an average age of 50, this is established family country — quiet streets, strong community ties, and low rental churn. 40% of homes are socially rented, reflecting the area's public housing provision and council presence. Full-time employment stands at 19% — below average for the region, consistent with the area's higher deprivation indicators.

Safety: Crime is moderate at 65 incidents per 1,000 residents — broadly typical for this type of urban area. Property: Average house prices are around £300k, up 0.6% 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.
