LLANGYFELACH ROAD, SA5 9LE House Prices & Local Information

SA5 9LE is an accessible, working-class neighbourhood on Llangyfelach Road, 0.1km from Pentre in Swansea. Administratively it sits within Castle ward and the Swansea West constituency.

An affordable area with active regeneration, SA5 9LE is a high-density area of young ethnic minority families, mostly in flats. By day, the area transitions to a non-metropolitan suburban areas character: white, female workforce with low qualifications, working locally. An average age of 41 puts this squarely in mixed-family territory — professional couples, school-age children households, and established residents all sharing the streets. 48% of homes are socially rented, reflecting the area's public housing provision and council presence. Full-time employment stands at 18% — 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. Property: With prices averaging £105k, this is one of the more affordable postcodes in the area, up 32.4% 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.
