Property Price & Volume Trends
The average property price of £351,320 sits just above the midpoint of national values. Price growth over the past decade has averaged 2.4% annually, notably slower than the national trend. Transaction volume has eased slightly, with 145 sales in the latest year compared to a 10-year average of 159 per annum.
Rent & Yield Trends
Average monthly rent of £999 is broadly in line with the national median. Rental growth has been measured at 3.6% annually over ten years, below the pace seen nationally. The flat yield currently stands at 6.0%, an improvement from its 10-year average of 4.8%, signalling a favourable shift for buy-to-let investors.
Income & Affordability Trends
Household income averages £41,704, placing the area well above the national average. The price-to-income ratio of 8.6x reflects improved affordability since 2016, when it stood at 9.5x. Rental affordability has remained essentially flat at 27.4% of income, virtually unchanged from 2016.
Resident Demographic Profile
The population is notably older than average, with over half aged 50 or above; those under 15 and aged 16–24 are both underrepresented. Housing is dominated by outright ownership at 41.1%—well above the national average of 33.7%—while private rental and social rented tenure are both below national norms. The employment base skews towards managers and professionals, who together account for over one-third of the workforce, while elementary occupations are less prevalent.
