CF24 4PW is an accessible, working-class neighbourhood located 0.2km from Cathays in Cardiff. Administratively it sits within Cathays ward and the Cardiff Central constituency.

This is a well-established rental postcode — members of this subgroup have a higher probability than other subgroups of being born in the eu, and of holding degree level qualifications. neighbourhood populations are relatively young, with low proportions above normal retirement age, and have the lowest levels of long-term disability in the group. The daytime character shifts — ethnically mixed workforce primarily in care and education. With an average age of just 27, this is a transient, student-oriented area — ideal for those who want a social neighbourhood, less suited to those seeking quiet stability. 72% of homes are privately rented — a strong rental market with good supply for incoming tenants.

Safety: Crime rates are low here at 32 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.
