In summary
Skipton South is close to the England average for deprivation, ranked #4,056 of 6,856 neighbourhoods nationally, and #63 of 77 in North Yorkshire. It is highly uneven across the seven themes — strong on Housing & access (88) but weak on Living environment (18). Typical homes here sold for about £189,975 over the past year, up 22% across five years (from 156 sales), 30% below the wider North Yorkshire median of £270,000. Cheaper homes only partly offset the deprivation score, leaving it at #1,277 of 6,851 on our affordability-adjusted measure. Typical household take-home income is around £36,543 a year, around the middle of England. Recorded crime ran at 75 incidents per 1,000 residents over the past year, close to the England rate of 83.
