Property Price & Volume Trends
Properties in DA13 are among the most expensive nationally, with an average price of £542,000. Over the past decade, annual price growth has averaged 3.2%, which is below the national pace. Transaction activity last year reached 196 sales, slightly above the 10-year average of 184, suggesting modest but steady demand.
Rent & Yield Trends
Average monthly rents in the broader DA postcode area stand at £1,502, placing it among the most expensive nationally for rental accommodation. Rents have grown at 4.8% per year over the past decade—well above the national average—reflecting strong rental demand. The flat yield currently sits at 6.2%, a meaningful improvement on the 10-year average of 5.0%, indicating a tightening rental market relative to capital values.
Income & Affordability Trends
Average household income of £46,000 is above the national average. However, the price-to-income ratio has drifted upwards from 10.8x in 2016 to 11.5x today, signalling that property purchase affordability has worsened. Rental affordability has similarly softened, with rent-to-income rising from 29.9% in 2016 to 31% currently.
Resident Demographic Profile
The population skews notably older: those aged 65 and over represent 25% of residents, well above the national average of 19.6%, whilst young adults aged 16–24 account for just 8.7%, below the national 11.0%. Owner occupation is exceptionally strong, with 46.5% owning outright and a further 35.1% with a mortgage—collectively far exceeding the national norm—while private renting is correspondingly low at 11.2%. Professional and managerial employment is above average, though administrative roles are more prominent than nationally.
