How Wisewood scores
Overall 56 out of 100, ranked 47 of 147 neighbourhoods, from 6 of 7 dimensions. Each score is a percentile rank against the other neighbourhoods, not a measurement.
- 100Quiet 3 inputs
- 79Green 4 inputs
- 35Connected 5 inputs

- –Safe not scored
- 51Lively 4 inputs
- 32Served 7 inputs
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. Wisewood covers 1.23 km² with 3,060 residents (Census 2021); noise was sampled at 72 points.

The ground beneath Wisewood
At the centre of Wisewood the bedrock is the Pennine Lower Coal Measures Formation: mudstone, siltstone, sandstone, coal, ironstone and ferricrete, Carboniferous, Langsettian (Westphalian A), about 316 to 314 million years ago, on the BGS 1:625 000 bedrock map (unit PSLCM). The 1:625 000 map is a regional overview generalised from more detailed sheets: it describes the ground under a neighbourhood as a whole and is not a site investigation.

Council tax bands here
The 2 small areas (LSOAs) whose population centres fall in this neighbourhood hold about 1,410 homes on the council tax list; 70% are in Band A, against 58% across Sheffield. The average full bill across these homes before discounts is about £1,867 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.

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
Wisewood ranks 88th of 126 for full-time students (5.6%) and 104th of 126 for private renting (8.4%). 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 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.
