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
Waterthorpe ranks 126th of 126 for full-time students (3.1%) and 88th of 126 for private renting (10.1%). 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.

Across 120 neighbourhoods there is a moderate link between median sold price and detached homes (r = 0.69): the two rise together.
