CF14 5XW is an accessible, working-class neighbourhood located 0.7km from Llanishen in Cardiff. Note: this is a large-user or commercial postcode — residential population data may be limited. Administratively it sits within Llanishen ward and the Cardiff North constituency.
Within the CF14 district, this postcode is characterised by a high-density area of young ethnic minority families, mostly in flats. By day, the area transitions to a business parks character: manufacturing, transport, and it with higher status mix. An average age of 38 puts this squarely in mixed-family territory — professional couples, school-age children households, and established residents all sharing the streets.
Safety: Crime rates are low here at 45 incidents per 1,000 residents — well below average and reassuring for families. 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.
