Property Price & Volume Trends
The average property price in DT4 is £277,000, placing it below the national average. Over the past decade, prices have grown at 2.8% annually—a relatively modest pace compared with the wider market. Transaction activity has slowed from its 10-year norm, with 576 sales recorded in the latest full year against an average of 696.
Rent & Yield Trends

Income & Affordability Trends
Average household income of £34,000 is notably below the national average. The price-to-income ratio of 8.4x has deteriorated since 2016 (when it stood at 7.8x), signalling that property has become less affordable relative to earnings. Rental affordability has also weakened: the rent-to-income ratio has risen to 31.2% from 28.4%, meaning renters face greater cost pressure.

DT4 is notably older than the UK average, with over a quarter of residents aged 65 and above—significantly higher than the national figure of 19.6%. The 50–64 age band is also overrepresented at 23.2%, compared to 19.8% nationally. Housing tenure is distinctive: outright ownership is above average at 36.8%, while mortgage-financed ownership at 19.2% is well below the national norm of 27.0%, reflecting the age profile. Private renting is unusually prevalent at 30.9% against a national average of 21.7%. In employment terms, trades workers (13.1%), caring roles (13.0%), and elementary occupations (11.8%) are all above their national averages, while professional roles are underrepresented at 14.4% against 20.5% nationally.
