In summary
Pontefract North East is close to the England average for deprivation, ranked #3,007 of 6,856 neighbourhoods nationally, and #14 of 45 in Wakefield. It is highly uneven across the seven themes — strong on Living environment (90) but weak on Health (33). Typical homes here, about £210,000 over the past year, have climbed steeply — up 27% in five years (from 165 sales), in line with the wider Wakefield median of £205,000. Cheaper homes only partly offset the deprivation score, leaving it at #595 of 6,851 on our affordability-adjusted measure.
