£23k / £115k (5X)

But it's doing the whole county.

£23k / £115k (5X)

Indeed. I reckon the gap would be even wider if it were more local!

That's a shame - it definitely varies on area for my neck of the woods - I've tried a few...

£45,687 / £680,000. 15x average income.

As others have pointed out, this appears to be an average of the wider area.

There will also be other anomalies, like my retired neighbour in a £1m house with only a pension income.

£41k average income, average house £182k, 4.5 time average income.

Average Net Household Income

£ 30,648

Average house price

£ 139,975

I assumed average incomes were lower, and house prices were lower than that

When you consider that in Belgravia, it reckons the average income is abour £40K, when most residents spend that every day on their servants wages.

Total statistical nonsense.

28K / 155K, so 6x. So the average person has no hope, as in most places.

And I don't believe £155K for a minute. When I was thinking about buying 6 months ago only flats were available for £155K and you'd need more like £190K for a small 2 bed house.
