RICHARD STREET, CF24 4DD House Prices & Local Information

CF24 4DD is an accessible, working-class neighbourhood on Richard Street, 0.3km from Caerdydd in Cardiff. Administratively it sits within Cathays ward and the Cardiff Central constituency.

This is a well-established rental postcode — a university campus area — mostly students in halls, very high turnover. The daytime character shifts — ethnically mixed workforce in transportation and storage. With an average age of just 24, this is a transient, student-oriented area — ideal for those who want a social neighbourhood, less suited to those seeking quiet stability. 84% of homes are privately rented — a strong rental market with good supply for incoming tenants.

Safety: Crime rates are low here at 30 incidents per 1,000 residents — well below average and reassuring for families. Property: Average house prices are around £235k, down 16.5% 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.
