In summary

Sileby sits close to the national midpoint for deprivation, #3,138 of 6,856 in England, and #18 of 22 in Charnwood. It is highly uneven across the seven themes — strong on Living environment (82) but weak on Housing & access (26). Typical homes here sold for about £235,000 over the past year, up 19% across five years (from 140 sales), 15% below the wider Charnwood median of £275,000. Cheaper homes only partly offset the deprivation score, leaving it at #1,000 of 6,851 on our affordability-adjusted measure. Typical household take-home income is around £37,480 a year, around the middle of England. Recorded crime ran at 62 incidents per 1,000 residents over the past year, below the England rate of 83.

Recorded incidents, not convictions. Crimes are counted where they happen while residents are counted where they live, so busy town-centre, retail and nightlife areas show high per-resident rates because visitors bring incidents with them.
