In summary

Acle & Reedham sits close to the national midpoint for deprivation, #3,412 of 6,856 in England, and #17 of 18 in Broadland. It is highly uneven across the seven themes — strong on Crime (78) but weak on Housing & access (10). Typical homes here sold for about £275,000 over the past year, broadly flat over five years (+5%) (from 97 sales), 10% below the wider Broadland median of £304,162. Cheaper homes only partly offset the deprivation score, leaving it at #1,853 of 6,851 on our affordability-adjusted measure. Typical household take-home income is around £39,138 a year, around the middle of England. Recorded crime ran at 39 incidents per 1,000 residents over the past year, well below the England rate of 83.
