LL52 0DS is an accessible, working-class neighbourhood located 0.2km from Y Dref in Criccieth. Administratively it sits within Criccieth ward and the Dwyfor Meirionnydd constituency.

This is a strong family neighbourhood — a popular retirement area with older residents and low crime. The daytime character shifts — mainly white, agricultural workforce, on the edges of smaller towns. Average age 61 — this is a predominantly retired and pre-retirement community, with very low mobility and high owner-occupation. 68% of properties are owner-occupied — a strong indicator of neighbourhood stability and long-term community investment.

Safety: Crime rates are low here at 23 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.
