Property Price & Volume Trends
The average property price of £584,000 places B93 among the most expensive districts nationally. However, price growth over the past decade has been modest at 2.6% annually, below the national average. Transaction activity has softened, with 250 sales in the latest year compared to a 10-year average of 317 per annum.
Rent & Yield Trends
Average monthly rent of £1,056 sits close to the national middle ground. Rental growth has been notably strong at 4.4% annually, well above the national pace. The flat yield of 6.3% in the latest year represents a marked improvement from its 10-year average of 4.9%, reflecting the combined effect of rental gains and price restraint.
Income & Affordability Trends
Household incomes of £49,941 are well above the national average, placing the area among the most affluent districts. The price-to-income ratio of 13.1x has deteriorated since 2016 (when it stood at 11.7x), indicating that purchase affordability has weakened despite strong incomes. Rental affordability has improved slightly, with the rent-to-income ratio falling from 29.3% to 28.8%.
Resident Demographic Profile
B93 has a notably older population profile, with over a quarter aged 65 and above compared to a national average of 20%, whilst young adults aged 16–24 are significantly underrepresented at 8%. The area is characterised by high rates of outright home ownership at 50%, nearly 50% above the national figure, alongside very low private rental occupancy at 10%. The workforce is heavily skewed towards professionals and managers, who together account for 56% of employment—more than double the national share—whilst trades and elementary workers are markedly scarce.
