Over the past decade, prices have grown at 3.8% annually—slightly above the national median rate—though recent transaction activity has softened, with 51 sales in the latest full year compared to an average of 66 over the previous ten years.
Rent & Yield Trends
Average monthly rent in the broader EX postcode area is £964, below the national median. Rental growth has been modest at 3.5% annually over ten years, slower than the national pace. The flat yield currently stands at 4.4%, a meaningful improvement from its ten-year average of 3.9%, suggesting a gradual shift toward better income returns for landlords.
Income & Affordability Trends
Net household income averages £35,232, notably below the national average, placing the district in the lower third nationally. The price-to-income ratio has deteriorated to 9.8x from 8.8x a decade ago, indicating that property has become less affordable relative to earnings. Rental affordability has improved marginally: the rent-to-income ratio has eased to 27% from 27.7% in 2016.
Resident Demographic Profile
The population is significantly older than average, with nearly 30% aged 65 and above compared to 19.6% nationally, and those aged 50–64 making up over a quarter of residents against a national figure of 19.8%. There is an unusually high concentration of trades workers at 21%, well above the national norm of 10.5%. Outright home ownership is markedly high at 51%, and social rented housing is notably scarce at just 6%, reflecting a population skewed toward established, owner-occupied properties.
