CF3 1RU House Prices & Local Information

CF3 1RU is an accessible, working-class neighbourhood located 0.3km from Trowbridge in Cardiff. Administratively it sits within Trowbridge ward and the Cardiff South and Penarth constituency.

An affordable area with active regeneration, CF3 1RU is a high-density area of young ethnic minority families, mostly in flats. By day, the area transitions to a large scale education character: large schools, colleges, and universities, nationally widespread. An average age of 35 puts this squarely in mixed-family territory — professional couples, school-age children households, and established residents all sharing the streets. 40% of homes are socially rented, reflecting the area's public housing provision and council presence.

Safety: Crime is moderate at 77 incidents per 1,000 residents — broadly typical for this type of urban area. 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 CF3 1RU are sourced from Output Area W00009675 (shared with 13 postcodes in this micro-neighbourhood). Property prices come from HM Land Registry.
