In summary
Mossley is close to the England average for deprivation, ranked #3,823 of 6,856 neighbourhoods nationally, and #8 of 30 in Tameside. It is highly uneven across the seven themes — strong on Education (77) but weak on Housing & access (18). Typical homes here sold for about £200,000 over the past year, broadly flat over five years (+4%) (from 185 sales), 7% below the wider Tameside median of £215,000. Cheaper homes only partly offset the deprivation score, leaving it at #1,137 of 6,851 on our affordability-adjusted measure. Typical household take-home income is around £35,445 a year, in the bottom third of England.

Affordability-adjusted Score ?
- #1,137 best value of 6,851 priced areas in England
- Combines this area's Area Score with how affordable its homes are nationally (geometric mean). Higher = a less-deprived area for less money.
Recorded crime
No recorded-crime data: the police force covering Mossley has not published usable street-level data for this period, so no rate or comparison is shown (a zero here would be misleading, not reassuring).
