          These postcodes are often council estates housing young families and singles. Many of the families are single parent households.

          Incomes are low. People have few, if any educational qualifications and their routine jobs are in shops and factories. Unemployment is high, and, despite the overall youthfulness of these areas, there are a number of people suffering long-term illness.

          People generally live in terraced houses and purpose built low-rise flats. Homes are rented from either the local council or Housing Association. They are typically two bedroom and thus quite crowded for the size of household.

          People in this type are on tight budgets and food bills are low relative to the size of the families. However, children are given the odd fast food treat. Phone bills are much smaller than average, and people make use of the finance options of catalogue shopping.

          A number feel they are likely to require a loan in the near future. Betting and the lottery are perceived to offer the chance of more money and a better standard of living.

          Leisure activities are restricted to low cost activities such as angling, bingo, listening to music and watching television. There is some uptake of cable TV and digital television.



          I live in a village, have a large house with extensive grounds, off-road parking for for 1/2 dozen vehicles. No council houses or terraced houses in the area etc etc.

            If you really want to know about an area, Google the local rag. It's all in there.

              I live in a retirement village for farmers

              Full neighbourhood profile
              Often, many of the people who live in this sort of postcode will be old people living in detached homes. These are known as type 7 in the ACORN classification and 2.04% of the UK’s population live in this type.

              Rural areas with smaller market towns are the main locations for these types. These include Somerset, the Cotswolds and the Lake District. Here is an overview of the likely preferences and features of your neighbourhood:

              Family income Medium
              Interest in current affairs High
              Housing - with mortgage Low
              Educated - to degree High
              Couples with children Medium
              Have satellite TV Medium

              These people live in prosperous areas, often where tourism is important and holiday homes are popular. The overall population is relatively old, with more than 35% aged over 65 and with twice the national average level of over 85s.

              Most households are older couples, although the number of single pensioners is also relatively high. Whilst there are high numbers of retired householders, residents who do work tend to be in well paid senior management and professional occupations, or work in agriculture.

              These are affluent people and they tend to live in detached homes with three or four bedrooms. Given the rural feel to some of these neighbourhoods, there is a need for a car, and householders generally have access to at least one vehicle and in many cases two or more.

              They like to take advice on their financial affairs and have a range of investments in stocks and shares, unit trusts and high interest accounts. They are also comfortable using credit cards.

              They appreciate good food and wine, and enjoy eating out on a regular basis. They also enjoy hobbies such as golf and gardening, and visiting National Trust properties. Like other types within the group, they choose to read the Daily and Sunday Telegraph.

                  Often, many of the people who live in this sort of postcode will be families and single parents living in semis and terraces. These are known as type 48 in the ACORN classification and 1.91% of the UK’s population live in this type.

                  Neighbourhoods fitting this profile are often found in former industrial cities in the north and north-east such as Newcastle upon Tyne, Middlesborough and Sunderland. Examples elsewhere in the country include Wrexham, Nottingham, and Wolverhampton. Here is an overview of the likely preferences and features of your neighbourhood:
                  • Family income Very low
                  • Interest in current affairs Very low
                  • Housing - with mortgage Very low
                  • Educated - to degree Very low
                  • Couples with children Medium
                  • Have satellite TV Medium
                  These are large families living in semi-detached council housing.

                  Many families have three or more children, and half of all families are headed by a single parent. Housing is generally two or three bedroom council semis and terraces.

                  Incomes are very low and a fifth of families feel in need of a loan. Unemployment levels are among the highest of any type, being double the national average. Where there is paid work, it tends to be routine jobs in nearby factories or shops. Travel to work is on foot or by public transport. Car ownership is very low.

                  There is little money for fashion shopping. Cheaper clothing is bought from discount stores and supermarkets.

                  Leisure activities include fishing, betting, listening to music and cookery, although take-away and fast food are consumed more than average. Magazines such as OK! or Bella and newspapers like The Sun, Daily Mirror, and Daily Star are all relatively popular reading.

                    Often, many of the people who live in this sort of postcode will be well-off professionals living in larger houses and converted flats. These are known as type 13 in the ACORN classification and 0.87% of the UK’s population live in this type.

                    Neighbourhoods fitting this profile are found in many urban areas of the UK, but particularly in London (Kensington and Chelsea, Wandsworth, Ealing, Richmond-upon-Thames and Fulham). Edinburgh and university towns such as Durham, Oxford and Cambridge als Here is an overview of the likely preferences and features of your neighbourhood:

                    Family income Very high
                    Interest in current affairs Very high
                    Housing - with mortgage Medium
                    Educated - to degree Very high
                    Couples with children High
                    Have satellite TV Low

                    These are predominantly well-off professional people living in urban areas of the UK. Most are well educated individuals in professional and managerial occupations, but there are also students and young singles starting out on their careers.

                    Houses tend to be large, with four or more bedrooms, often in Georgian and Victorian terraces. Many are owner-occupied by professional couples and families. There are also high levels of converted flats, some of which are privately rented. The younger singles in these areas will often be sharing flats and houses.

                    Car ownership is high, reflecting the wealthy nature of these neighbourhoods, but because of their urban location, travel to work is mostly by public transport.

                    Incomes tend to be high, with many residents earning over £50,000 a year. They are financially aware and have high levels of savings and investments. They also have high levels of credit card useage. These technologically sophisticated consumers make great use of the Internet for financial services, as well as buying other products and services.

                    They enjoy the arts, including theatre, classical music, opera and the cinema. The most widely read newspapers are The Guardian, Independent, The Times and Observer. Foreign travel and skiing are popular leisure activities.

                      As well as spouting total bollocks on web forums.

                      You've come right out the other side of the forest of irony and ended up in the desert of wrong.
