SY16 1DA House Prices & Local Information

SY16 1DA is an up-and-coming urban area located 0.9km from Pen-y-Glodfa in Newtown (Powys). Administratively it sits within Newtown East ward and the Montgomeryshire constituency.

For families considering a move, SY16 1DA represents a mature area with an older, predominantly retired population. By day, the area transitions to a traditional high streets character: traditional high streets with some larger stores, mostly employees. An average age of 44 puts this squarely in mixed-family territory — professional couples, school-age children households, and established residents all sharing the streets. 58% of properties are owner-occupied — a strong indicator of neighbourhood stability and long-term community investment.

Safety: Crime rates are above average at 114 incidents per 1,000 residents — worth reviewing the crime breakdown below. 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.

Census 2021 statistics for SY16 1DA are sourced from Output Area W00002563 (shared with 40 postcodes in this micro-neighbourhood). Property prices come from HM Land Registry.
