Property Price & Volume Trends
The average property price in LS10 is £199,000, placing it among the cheapest districts nationally. Despite this affordable entry point, the area has experienced strong 10-year annualised growth of 4.8%, well above the national average. Transaction activity has slowed recently, with 321 sales in the latest year compared to a 10-year average of 461, suggesting a tightening market.
Rent & Yield Trends
Average monthly rent of £1,103 sits slightly above the national median. Rental growth over the past decade has been robust at 4.3% annually, outpacing national trends. The flat yield of 5.7% is notably above its 10-year average of 5.0%, indicating strengthening returns for buy-to-let investors in the current market.
Income & Affordability Trends
Average household income of £33,453 is significantly below the national average, placing the area among lower-income districts. The price-to-income ratio of 5.5x has risen from 5.2x in 2016, indicating that affordability for purchase has worsened. Rental affordability has also deteriorated, with the rent-to-income ratio climbing from 29.6% to 30.6%, reflecting faster rent growth than income growth.
Resident Demographic Profile
LS10 has a distinctly younger profile than the nation: the 25–34 age group makes up 20.2% of the population, well above the 13.4% national average, while those aged 65 and over account for just 11.2% against the national 19.6%. The housing tenure is dominated by private and social renting, which together account for 59.3% of households—far higher than the national combined figure of 38.2%. Owner-occupation is correspondingly low at 39.8%. Employment is fairly balanced across professional and technical roles, though elementary occupations (13.1%) and caring professions (10.1%) are proportionally stronger than the national average.
