Property Price & Volume Trends
The latest average property price in PL25 is £282,400, positioning it below the national average. Over the past decade, prices have grown at 4.3% annually — a pace notably faster than the national trend, placing the area among stronger-performing markets. However, transaction activity has softened: 339 sales were recorded in the latest full year, down from a 10-year average of 472 per year.
Rent & Yield Trends
Average monthly rent in the broader PL postcode area stands at £982, close to the national middle ground. Rental growth over the past decade has averaged 3.8% annually, in line with national trends. The flat yield has improved meaningfully, rising to 5.7% in the latest year from a 10-year average of 4.7%, reflecting favourable conditions for buy-to-let investors.
Income & Affordability Trends
Average net household income in PL25 is £34,631, below the national average. The price-to-income ratio currently stands at 8.4x, worsened from 7.0x in 2016, signalling that property has become less affordable relative to local earnings. By contrast, rental affordability has remained virtually stable, with rent-to-income ratios unchanged at around 27.6% over the same period.
Resident Demographic Profile
The population skews notably older, with nearly a quarter aged 65 and over — well above the national average of 19.6% — and a below-average share of those aged 16–24. Home ownership is relatively high: 40.4% own outright, substantially above the national norm. The employment base shows a above-average concentration in trades and caring roles, reflecting both rural character and an ageing demographic in need of support services.
