In summary

Common Edge is in the more-deprived bottom 40% of England, ranked #4,324 of 6,856 neighbourhoods nationally, and #3 of 19 in Blackpool. It is highly uneven across the seven themes — strong on Housing & access (80) but weak on Health (13). Typical homes here, about £161,000 over the past year, have climbed steeply — up 27% in five years (from 150 sales), 17% above the wider Blackpool median of £137,500. Cheaper homes only partly offset the deprivation score, leaving it at #1,332 of 6,851 on our affordability-adjusted measure.
