How Tinsley scores

Overall 51 out of 100, ranked 73 of 147 neighbourhoods, from 6 of 7 dimensions. Each score is a percentile rank against the other neighbourhoods, not a measurement.

How these scores are worked out

Each input is a percentile rank: the share of the other neighbourhoods this one is at least as good as (direction per input). A dimension is the percentile rank of the mean of its available input ranks and needs at least two inputs; the overall score is the mean of the scored dimensions. Points are placed by point-in-polygon against the Data for Action boundaries; per-head figures use Census 2021 residents for neighbourhoods with their own census areas; noise shares sample an even grid of points inside each polygon against the Defra Lden bands; distances are straight lines from the polygon centre. Tinsley covers 5.40 km² with 4,795 residents (Census 2021); noise was sampled at 86 points.

Coal mining legacy here

About 35.2% of Tinsley, roughly 188.9 hectares, lies in a coal mining Development High Risk Area: recorded shafts, adits or shallow workings are at or near the surface, so new building there needs a coal mining risk assessment.

Land in a high risk area: 35.2%about 188.9 hectares
Sheffield as a whole: 17.1%

This is a planning designation drawn from recorded features, not a survey of any one property, and being in an area does not mean the ground there is unsafe. Buying or building?

Council tax bands here

The 3 small areas (LSOAs) whose population centres fall in this neighbourhood hold about 1,760 homes on the council tax list; 92% are in Band A, against 58% across Sheffield. The average full bill across these homes before discounts is about £1,716 a year in 2026-27, worked out from the Band D figure. A few very small counts are withheld by the VOA, so the bands add up to slightly fewer homes than the total.

Share of homes by council tax band at 31 March 2026 (VOA, rounded to the nearest ten).

Offences recorded by South Yorkshire Police in August 2026, counted into this neighbourhood. Locations published by the Home Office are approximate by design, so this is a count for the area, never for a street or an address.

Recorded crime from data.police.uk, published by the Home Office under the Open Government Licence v3.0. Figures are for whole calendar months and are published about two months in arrears, so they are never a picture of today. The published locations are anonymous map points chosen by the Home Office to stand for a stretch of street, not addresses, and this site keeps neighbourhood counts only: no point, street or record is stored. Recorded crime counts what was reported to and recorded by the police, which is not the same as what happened.
