This is a profile for the central postcode in Llanrwst which is LL26 0HU. Neighbourhood profiles vary significantly from postcode to postcode.
Often, many of the people who live in this sort of postcode will be lower income and older people living in semis. These are known as type 34 in the ACORN classification and 2.22% of the UK's population live in this type.
Neighbourhoods fitting this profile are found in parts of Norfolk, Lincolnshire, Northumberland and Dorset, in addition to towns such as Scarborough, King’s Lynn and Blackpool.
These are areas with older established communities. There are high numbers of single pensioners and the rest are older or retired couples. There are very few children as most have grown up and left home.
Most people live in semi-detached houses or bungalows with two or three bedrooms. There is a real mix of tenure which splits fairly evenly across owned outright, owned with a mortgage and renting from a housing association.
About one in five people are retired and the rest work in manufacturing, retail and other routine occupations. Like other types with a similar age profile, there are significant numbers of women working part-time, which ensures they have a modest level of disposable income. They tend to have one car which is relatively inexpensive and have limited investments in a range of products, as well as private and company pensions.
When they go on holiday they like to take their caravan or go on a standard package to the Mediterranean. They also enjoy going to the pub for a meal. Otherwise simple pastimes such as gardening are popular.
These householders read The Sun, Daily Mirror and Daily Star.
