However, growth has lagged well behind the national average, with 10-year annualised gains of just 2.4% — substantially below typical UK performance over the same period.

Rent & Yield Trends
At £2,250 per month, rents in the broader N postcode area are among the highest nationally. Rental growth has been modest at 3.4% annualised over the past decade, below the national trend. The flat yield has improved noticeably, rising to 4.4% in the latest year from a 10-year average of 3.5%, reflecting a more attractive proposition for investors seeking rental returns.
Income & Affordability Trends
Average household income of £52,361 sits well above the national average, placing the area in the top tier nationally. Purchase affordability has improved markedly: the price-to-income ratio has fallen from 12.6x in 2016 to 10.5x today, easing the burden of buying. Rental affordability has also strengthened considerably, with the rent-to-income ratio dropping from 51.2% to 42.8% over the same period, reflecting strong income growth relative to housing costs.
Resident Demographic Profile
The area skews notably towards mid-career professionals and families, with 35–49-year-olds accounting for 23.2% of the population — significantly above the national average of 18.7%. Young adults aged 16–24 are underrepresented at 9.1% versus 11.0% nationally. The private rental sector is notably stronger here at 31.8% of the population, well above the national 21.7%, while social rented housing is markedly lower at 8% compared to 16.5% nationally. The professional workforce is notably concentrated, making up 23.6% — substantially above the national 20.5% — reflecting the area's appeal to higher-earning commuters.
