Most Affordable Postcodes in UK
Ordered by the median price of homes sold in each postcode sector, cheapest first.
What this ranks on: the median price of homes sold in each sector in the last full year, cheapest first. That is price, not affordability: no local earnings figure is involved, and the mix of homes that happened to sell differs between sectors. It is not a judgement about where is a good place to live, and AreaIQ Places does not score areas. Search sold prices (HM Land Registry) →

Questions
What are the most affordable postcodes in UK?
This page orders postcode sectors in UK by the median price of homes sold there in the last full year, from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, cheapest first. It measures price, not affordability: we hold no local earnings figure, so nothing here tells you what is affordable on a particular income. A cheaper sector may also differ in the size and type of homes that sold.
Is it still possible to buy a house in UK?
It depends on the specific area. UK has a wide range of prices. The sectors shown below represent the most affordable entry points. Speaking with a mortgage advisor about your specific income and deposit will give you a personalised view of what is achievable.
