Whalley Range
Whalley Range, in Manchester. What stands out most here is deprivation decile: at 3 it is in the third most deprived tenth of England, measured across this neighbourhood (LSOA, about 1,500 people).
Planning designations: Conservation area — the centre postcode. These cover the centre point, not necessarily the whole area.
Recorded crimes, whole borough: 84,130 — Manchester as a whole, the year to March 2026. The local force does not publish street-level crime to police.uk, so this is the borough's own total for a whole financial year. It covers a much bigger area than this page and cannot be read as a figure for here.
Rivers and sea flood risk: not in an at-risk band — the centre postcode. England only, indicative, by 50 m cell, rivers and sea only. It says nothing about surface water.
GP practices used by this neighbourhood: 41 — this neighbourhood (LSOA, about 1,500 people). Most use The Range Medical Centre (58%). Where neighbours are registered — not a catchment, and not a guarantee of a place.
We could not show these: census. They either did not answer or are not published for this area — a gap in our data, not a finding about this place.
Rankings and orderings on this page are ours; every figure belongs to the publisher named beside it.
The figures
Figures are shown against their own scale, or against the England figure beside them. These are a reading aid, not a rating — StreetOwl does not score places.
