In summary

Woodhouse Mill is in the more-deprived bottom 40% of England, ranked #4,584 of 6,856 neighbourhoods nationally, and #34 of 70 in Sheffield. It is highly uneven across the seven themes — strong on Housing & access (93) but weak on Health (19). Typical homes here, about £188,000 over the past year, have climbed steeply — up 25% in five years (from 75 sales), 13% below the wider Sheffield median of £217,000. Cheaper homes only partly offset the deprivation score, leaving it at #1,968 of 6,851 on our affordability-adjusted measure. Typical household take-home income is around £33,096 a year, in the bottom third of England. Recorded crime ran at 49 incidents per 1,000 residents over the past year, well 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.
