In summary

Urmston East sits close to the national midpoint for deprivation, #3,165 of 6,856 in England, and #19 of 28 in Trafford. It is highly uneven across the seven themes — strong on Housing & access (98) but weak on Living environment (12). Typical homes here sold for about £293,125 over the past year, up 9% across five years (from 100 sales), 21% below the wider Trafford median of £370,000. Cheaper homes only partly offset the deprivation score, leaving it at #1,965 of 6,851 on our affordability-adjusted measure. Typical household take-home income is around £33,949 a year, in the bottom third of England.
