In summary
Shiney Row is in the more-deprived bottom 40% of England, ranked #4,728 of 6,856 neighbourhoods nationally, and #11 of 36 in Sunderland. It is highly uneven across the seven themes — strong on Living environment (85) but weak on Health (16). Typical homes here sold for about £175,000 over the past year, up 9% across five years (from 125 sales), 13% above the wider Sunderland median of £155,000. Cheaper homes only partly offset the deprivation score, leaving it at #2,041 of 6,851 on our affordability-adjusted measure. Typical household take-home income is around £37,364 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.
