House prices in depth
The median sale price in BR2 0JJ is £369,000, but it rests on only a handful of recent sales, so it should be treated as indicative rather than typical. Across the postcode sector, flats have a median of £338,000 from 191 sales, terraced homes £560,000 from 57 sales, semi-detached homes £735,000 from 77 sales, and detached homes £967,500 from 60 sales. That puts the sector above the national median of £283,000, while the wider district median is £500,000.
Crime in context
Recorded crime in the local area stands at 97 incidents and is 31.1% higher than a year ago. Over three years, crime is up 10.2%, so the recent rise leaves the local figure above where it was then as well. Violence and sexual offences is the most common category now, and it was also the leading category three years ago. That gives the area a consistent top category at the two points in time provided, even though the overall number of incidents has moved up.
