In summary

New Pudsey is close to the England average for deprivation, ranked #2,836 of 6,856 neighbourhoods nationally, and #42 of 107 in Leeds. It is highly uneven across the seven themes — strong on Housing & access (84) but weak on Living environment (27). Typical homes here, about £240,000 over the past year, have climbed steeply — up 28% in five years (from 74 sales), in line with the wider Leeds median of £246,000. Cheaper homes only partly offset the deprivation score, leaving it at #834 of 6,851 on our affordability-adjusted measure. Typical household take-home income is around £41,722 a year, around the middle of England. Recorded crime ran at 85 incidents per 1,000 residents over the past year, close to 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.
