FY1 1BP is an up-and-coming urban area on Cedar Square, 1.2km from Queenstown in Blackpool. Administratively it sits within Talbot ward and the Blackpool South constituency.

This is a well-established rental postcode — a significant portion of adults hold a degree, but a notable number have also pursued apprenticeships in the past. employment is predominantly concentrated in caring, leisure and other service occupations, or in sales and customer services. individuals in this subgroup are slightly more likely to be uk-born, compared with the group average. the population displays a fairly balanced age distribution, apart from the smaller proportion of elderly retirees. the neighbourhoods show limited ethnic diversity, and the housing landscape primarily consists of terraced homes, with a mix of detached and semi-detached properties as well. it is not uncommon for residents to own multiple vehicles. The daytime character shifts — traditional retail areas with professional services and self-employed, often in market towns and higher status areas. The 38 average age reflects a mixed, mid-career community — settling down but not yet slowing down. 85% of homes are privately rented — a strong rental market with good supply for incoming tenants.

Safety: Crime rates are high (663 per 1,000 residents) — commercial zones and transport hubs in the vicinity contribute to these figures. Property: With prices averaging £65k, this is one of the more affordable postcodes in the 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 FY1 1BP are sourced from Output Area E00064231 (shared with 644 postcodes in this micro-neighbourhood). Property prices come from HM Land Registry.
