In summary

Oakhill & Trent Vale is in the more-deprived bottom 40% of England, ranked #4,714 of 6,856 neighbourhoods nationally, and #10 of 33 in Stoke-on-Trent. It is highly uneven across the seven themes — strong on Housing & access (92) but weak on Health (17). Typical homes here, about £165,000 over the past year, have climbed steeply — up 33% in five years (from 66 sales), in line with the wider Stoke-on-Trent median of £160,000. Cheaper homes only partly offset the deprivation score, leaving it at #1,913 of 6,851 on our affordability-adjusted measure. Typical household take-home income is around £35,202 a year, in the bottom third of England. Recorded crime ran at 105 incidents per 1,000 residents over the past year, above the England rate of 83.
