OX3 0BL House Prices & Local Information

OX3 0BL is a sought-after residential area located 1.0km from New Headington in Oxford. Administratively it sits within Headington Hill & Northway ward and the Oxford East constituency.

This is a well-established rental postcode — a university campus area — mostly students in halls, very high turnover. The daytime character shifts — large schools, colleges, and universities, nationally widespread. With an average age of just 26, this is a transient, student-oriented area — ideal for those who want a social neighbourhood, less suited to those seeking quiet stability. 55% of homes are privately rented — a strong rental market with good supply for incoming tenants. The area has a notably diverse population — 34% of residents identify as non-white, reflecting the multicultural character of this part of Oxford.

Safety: Crime rates are low here at 32 incidents per 1,000 residents — well below average and reassuring for families. The area ranks among the least deprived 20% in England — a strong signal of community wellbeing, good schools, and low crime.
