Property Price & Volume Trends
The average property price in Sheffield is £226,000, placing it well below the national average. Over the past decade, prices have grown at 3.4% annually—a solid pace that sits above the national median, suggesting the area has outperformed many regions despite its affordable entry point.
Rent & Yield Trends
Average monthly rent stands at £713, significantly below the national level. Rental growth over ten years has been 3.5% annually, close to the national median. The flat yield of 5.0% is notably attractive, offering investors above-average returns relative to property prices.
Income & Affordability Trends
Average household income is £35,506, below the national average. The price-to-income ratio of 6.4x has widened since 2016 (when it was 5.9x), indicating that property affordability has become slightly tighter. Rental affordability has improved, however: the rent-to-income ratio has fallen from 21.9% to 20.6%, suggesting renters are spending less of their income on housing.
Resident Demographic Profile
The area has a notably higher proportion of social rented housing (21.1%) compared to the national average of 16.5%, reflecting stronger community housing provision. The workforce skews towards elementary occupations (12.7% versus 10.2% nationally) and caring roles (10.2% versus 9.2% nationally), whilst professional-level employment is slightly below average. Age distribution is broadly in line with national patterns, with no significant outliers.
