CAECONNA ROAD, SA5 5HY House Prices & Local Information

SA5 5HY is an accessible, working-class neighbourhood on Caeconna Road, 0.3km from Fforesthall in Swansea. Administratively it sits within Penderry ward and the Swansea East constituency.

An affordable area with active regeneration, SA5 5HY is a diverse suburb with younger adults and first-time buyers, good starter homes. By day, the area transitions to a low density wholesale and retail character: low density wholesale and retail in mostly white areas, often on urban fringe or close to transport nodes. An average age of 37 puts this squarely in mixed-family territory — professional couples, school-age children households, and established residents all sharing the streets. 36% of homes are socially rented, reflecting the area's public housing provision and council presence.

Safety: Crime rates are low here at 42 incidents per 1,000 residents — well below average and reassuring for families. Property: With prices averaging £113k, this is one of the more affordable postcodes in the area, down 1.4% year-on-year. 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.
