Over the past decade, prices have grown at 2.6% per year—significantly slower than the national average, reflecting more modest appreciation in this rural market.

The flat yield has improved considerably: it now stands at 5.8%, up from a 10-year average of 4.8%, reflecting recent rental income gains and changing price-to-rent dynamics.
Income & Affordability Trends
Average household net income is £42,105, placing the area above the national median. However, housing affordability has tightened: the price-to-income ratio has risen from 10.6x in 2016 to 11.3x today, indicating property prices have grown faster than local earnings. Rental affordability has similarly deteriorated, with rent consuming 30.1% of income now compared to 26.1% in 2016.

SP6 has a distinctly older demographic profile: nearly 30% of the population is aged 65 and over—well above the national 19.6%—while those aged under 25 are notably underrepresented. Owner-occupation is the dominant tenure, with 45.8% owning outright, significantly higher than the national 33.7%, reflecting both age profile and rural settlement patterns.
