Rent & Yield Trends

Rental growth has been notably strong at 4.5% annually over ten years, placing it in the faster-growing tier nationally. The flat yield has improved markedly to 5.7% from a 10-year average of 4.6%, reflecting a positive shift in rental return relative to property values.
Income & Affordability Trends
Average household income is £49,031, placing this area among the most affluent districts nationally. However, affordability pressures have intensified: the price-to-income ratio has risen from 7.1x in 2016 to 9.3x today, indicating that properties have become significantly less affordable relative to local earnings. Rental affordability has similarly worsened, with the rent-to-income ratio climbing from 26.1% to 31.6% over the same period.

Mortgage ownership is elevated at 35.9% compared to the national average of 27.0%, reflecting the family-oriented nature of the community, while private renting is well below average at 13.8%.
