In summary

Brimington South & Tapton sits close to the national midpoint for deprivation, #3,316 of 6,856 in England, and #4 of 13 in Chesterfield. It is highly uneven across the seven themes — strong on Housing & access (85) but weak on Health (19). Typical homes here sold for about £210,999 over the past year, broadly flat over five years (+7%) (from 114 sales), 7% above the wider Chesterfield median of £197,250. Cheaper homes only partly offset the deprivation score, leaving it at #842 of 6,851 on our affordability-adjusted measure.
