ST ALDATES, OX1 1DG House Prices & Local Information

OX1 1DG is an accessible, working-class neighbourhood on St Aldates, 0.4km from Grandpont in Oxford. Administratively it sits within Osney & St Thomas ward and the Oxford East constituency.

An affordable area with active regeneration, OX1 1DG is a university campus area — mostly students in halls, very high turnover. Outside of residential hours, major hospitals and public administration with diverse workforces. The predominance of young residents (average age 22) gives the area its energy — expect active social scenes, short tenancies, and regular neighbourhood turnover. 58% of homes are socially rented, reflecting the area's public housing provision and council presence. Full-time employment stands at 5% — below average for the region, consistent with the area's higher deprivation indicators.

Safety: Crime is moderate at 75 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.
