In summary

Lightoaks sits close to the national midpoint for deprivation, #3,659 of 6,856 in England, and #6 of 34 in Salford. It is highly uneven across the seven themes — strong on Housing & access (65) but weak on Living environment (7). Typical homes here, about £260,250 over the past year, have climbed steeply — up 34% in five years (from 72 sales), 9% above the wider Salford median of £238,838. Cheaper homes only partly offset the deprivation score, leaving it at #1,883 of 6,851 on our affordability-adjusted measure.
