How this neighbourhood compares
Each measure is compared across the 126 Sheffield neighbourhoods that have their own census area; r is the correlation from -1 to 1. A pattern across neighbourhoods is not a cause, and it says nothing about any one street or household.
Full-time students and private renting
Brightside ranks 37th of 126 for full-time students (9.7%) and 50th of 126 for private renting (15.7%). Across 126 neighbourhoods there is a strong link between full-time students and private renting (r = 0.85): the two rise together. Student areas are let by the room and by the year, so a high student share usually means a high private-renting share.

Median sold price and owner occupation
Brightside is not on this chart because it has too few sales for a reliable median. Across 120 neighbourhoods there is a moderate link between median sold price and owner occupation (r = 0.69): the two rise together. Where more homes are owned outright or with a mortgage, sold prices tend to be higher; renting-heavy areas cluster lower.

Median sold price and detached homes
Brightside is not on this chart because it has too few sales for a reliable median. Across 120 neighbourhoods there is a moderate link between median sold price and detached homes (r = 0.69): the two rise together. Home type drives price: a neighbourhood of detached houses sells for more than one of terraces and flats, whatever else is true of it.

Across 126 neighbourhoods there is a moderate link between aged 65 and over and one-person households (r = -0.52): the two move in opposite directions.
