In summary
The Dales & South Skegby sits close to the national midpoint for deprivation, #3,336 of 6,856 in England, and #4 of 16 in Ashfield. It is highly uneven across the seven themes — strong on Housing & access (96) but weak on Health (32). Typical homes here sold for about £184,998 over the past year, up 21% across five years (from 66 sales), 5% below the wider Ashfield median of £195,000. Cheaper homes only partly offset the deprivation score, leaving it at #578 of 6,851 on our affordability-adjusted measure. Typical household take-home income is around £33,786 a year, in the bottom third of England. Recorded crime ran at 56 incidents per 1,000 residents over the past year, below the England rate of 83.
