In summary

Bradwell is in the more-deprived bottom 40% of England, ranked #4,406 of 6,856 neighbourhoods nationally, and #11 of 16 in Newcastle-under-Lyme. It is highly uneven across the seven themes — strong on Housing & access (83) but weak on Health (19). Typical homes here, about £195,000 over the past year, have climbed steeply — up 43% in five years (from 76 sales), in line with the wider Newcastle-under-Lyme median of £200,000. Cheaper homes only partly offset the deprivation score, leaving it at #1,789 of 6,851 on our affordability-adjusted measure. Typical household take-home income is around £32,398 a year, in the bottom third of England. Recorded crime ran at 64 incidents per 1,000 residents over the past year, below the England rate of 83.

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.
