NP20 5FD is an accessible, working-class neighbourhood on Rose Street, 0.3km from Marshes in Newport (Newport). Administratively it sits within Allt-yr-yn ward and the Newport West constituency.

This is a well-established rental postcode — a classic working-class terrace area — densely packed streets, low ethnic diversity. The daytime character shifts — manufacturing, transport, and it with higher status mix. The 38 average age reflects a mixed, mid-career community — settling down but not yet slowing down. 41% of homes are privately rented — a strong rental market with good supply for incoming tenants.

Safety: Crime is moderate at 81 incidents per 1,000 residents — broadly typical for this type of urban area. Property: With prices averaging £132k, this is one of the more affordable postcodes in the area, up 60.4% year-on-year. 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.
