In summary

Taunton North Town sits close to the national midpoint for deprivation, #3,528 of 6,856 in England, and #42 of 71 in Somerset. It is highly uneven across the seven themes — strong on Housing & access (79) but weak on Crime (16). Typical homes here, about £240,000 over the past year, have climbed steeply — up 36% in five years (from 160 sales), 16% below the wider Somerset median of £285,000. Cheaper homes only partly offset the deprivation score, leaving it at #1,426 of 6,851 on our affordability-adjusted measure.
