NR30 1QY is an accessible, working-class neighbourhood located 0.3km from Northgate in Great Yarmouth. Administratively it sits within Central and Northgate ward and the Great Yarmouth constituency.
For families considering a move, NR30 1QY represents a transitional terrace area — improving but still facing economic pressures. By day, the area transitions to a mining and quarrying facilities character: industrial activities connected with mining and quarrying. An average age of 42 puts this squarely in mixed-family territory — professional couples, school-age children households, and established residents all sharing the streets. 59% of properties are owner-occupied — a strong indicator of neighbourhood stability and long-term community investment.
Safety: Crime is moderate at 65 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 NR30 1QY are sourced from Output Area E00135159 (shared with 24 postcodes in this micro-neighbourhood). Property prices come from HM Land Registry.
