We map what’s nearby. Schools, safety, healthcare, transport, green space and amenities around CF14 2QQ — each measured at its own radius, from a 0.25-mile crime count to a 2-mile school catchment.
02
We blend in national context. Every local factor is combined with England’s Index of Multiple Deprivation, so a postcode is judged both on what’s actually nearby and on how the wider neighbourhood compares nationally.
