Property Price & Volume Trends
The latest average property price in YO10 is £315,000, close to the national median. Over the past decade, prices have grown by 3.3% annually—below the typical pace of growth seen across Britain. Transaction activity has slowed noticeably: 229 sales in the latest year compare to a 10-year average of 318, suggesting softer recent momentum.
Rent & Yield Trends
Average monthly rent in the broader YO postcode stands at £999, broadly in line with national norms. Rents have grown at 3.6% per year over ten years, a slower pace than the national trend. Yields have strengthened recently, standing at 6.0% against a 10-year average of 4.8%, reflecting a positive shift for buy-to-let investors.
Income & Affordability Trends
Average household income of £39,231 sits slightly above the national average. Purchase affordability has tightened: the price-to-income ratio has risen from 7.7x in 2016 to 8.5x today, indicating homes have become less affordable relative to local earnings. Rental affordability has remained stable, with the rent-to-income ratio holding steady at 27.4% over the same period.
Resident Demographic Profile
The age profile is heavily skewed toward young adults: those aged 16–24 account for 34% of the population—three times the national share—reflecting a strong student or young professional presence. The under-15 and 65+ populations are both notably below average, creating a distinctly youthful demographic shape. Housing tenure reflects this pattern: private rental dominates at 35%, well above the national average of 22%, whilst outright ownership at 27% is below the national norm. Employment is weighted toward professional and technical roles (27% and 14% respectively), above national levels, though elementary occupations are also more prevalent than average.
