In summary

Swadlincote North is close to the England average for deprivation, ranked #3,857 of 6,856 neighbourhoods nationally, and #9 of 12 in South Derbyshire. It is highly uneven across the seven themes — strong on Housing & access (91) but weak on Education (24). Typical homes here, about £239,950 over the past year, have climbed steeply — up 43% in five years (from 139 sales), 6% below the wider South Derbyshire median of £255,000. Cheaper homes only partly offset the deprivation score, leaving it at #1,720 of 6,851 on our affordability-adjusted measure. Typical household take-home income is around £36,904 a year, around the middle of England. Recorded crime ran at 54 incidents per 1,000 residents over the past year, below the England rate of 83.
