SA5 7JU House Prices & Local Information

SA5 7JU is an accessible, working-class neighbourhood located 0.3km from Mynydd Newydd in Swansea. Administratively it sits within Penderry ward and the Swansea East constituency.

An affordable area with active regeneration, SA5 7JU is a high-density area of young ethnic minority families, mostly in flats. Work and footfall patterns mark this as a non-metropolitan suburban areas zone — white, female workforce with low qualifications, working locally. The 32 average age reflects a thriving young professional community — a good mix of renters and first-time buyers, with strong employment rates. 86% of homes are socially rented, reflecting the area's public housing provision and council presence. Full-time employment stands at 25% — below average for the region, consistent with the area's higher deprivation indicators.

Safety: Crime rates are low here at 43 incidents per 1,000 residents — well below average and reassuring for families. 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.
