SILK MILL GREEN, LS16 6DU House Prices & Local Information

LS16 6DU is an accessible, working-class neighbourhood on Silk Mill Green, 0.6km from Tinshill in Leeds. Administratively it sits within Weetwood ward and the Leeds North West constituency.

An affordable area with active regeneration, LS16 6DU is a striving suburban area — non-UK born households working to get ahead. The daytime character shifts — ethnically mixed self-employed professional services, home workers in outer suburbs. An average age of 35 points to a young professional and early-career population — ambitious, mobile, and predominantly renting. 54% of homes are socially rented, reflecting the area's public housing provision and council presence.

Safety: Crime rates are low here at 44 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.
