Haworth Park in Kingston upon Hull
Living in Haworth Park
This part of Hull has a distinctly settled, residential feel. The population is older and more rooted than much of the city — around 31% of residents are 65 or over, and nearly four in five households own their home outright or with a mortgage. That gives the streets a quieter, more established character than the student-heavy or younger professional pockets elsewhere in Hull.
Rents here are low by any measure. A two-bedroom property runs around £612 a month, and even a three-bedroom comes in under £750. That's roughly half what you'd pay for a comparable property in many southern English cities, and noticeably below even the broader Yorkshire and The Humber average. For buyers, the median sale price sits around £147,000 — and the average deposit takes just under three years to save on a typical local salary.
The demographic picture is fairly uniform: 93% of residents were born in the UK, the ethnic diversity index is low at 8, and the area has one of the smallest private-rented sectors in Hull, at under 19% of households. It's a place where people tend to stay once they arrive. Single-person households make up over a third of all homes, reflecting the older age profile as much as anything else.
For day-to-day connectivity, most residents drive — 64% travel to work by car. The nearest mainline rail station is roughly 3.2 km away, about a 40-minute walk or a short drive. There's no metro or tram service within realistic distance. The nearest major employment hub is around 101 minutes away by public transport, so this neighbourhood suits those already working locally or from home rather than long-distance commuters.
