BADMINTON GARDENS, SA5 5DT House Prices & Local Information

SA5 5DT is an accessible, working-class neighbourhood on Badminton Gardens, 0.4km from Raven Hill in Swansea. Administratively it sits within Cockett ward and the Swansea West constituency.

An affordable area with active regeneration, SA5 5DT is a transitional terrace area — improving but still facing economic pressures. The daytime character shifts — low density wholesale and retail in mostly white areas, often on urban fringe or close to transport nodes. The 37 average age reflects a mixed, mid-career community — settling down but not yet slowing down. 36% of homes are socially rented, reflecting the area's public housing provision and council presence. Full-time employment stands at 24% — below average for the region, consistent with the area's higher deprivation indicators.

Safety: Crime rates are low here at 37 incidents per 1,000 residents — well below average and reassuring for families. Property: With prices averaging £115k, this is one of the more affordable postcodes in the 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.
