An affordable area with active regeneration, OL16 1BH is an older retirement area, many residents well beyond working age.

Residents average 49 years old — this is a settled, predominantly owner-occupied area with a stable, community-minded population. 90% of homes are socially rented, reflecting the area's public housing provision and council presence. Full-time employment stands at 18% — below average for the region, consistent with the area's higher deprivation indicators.

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.
