Most homes are owner-occupied, so turnover is low and many residents have been here a long time; a high share of adults are degree-educated, which often shows up in the kind of jobs people commute to.

Endcliffe & Ranmoor in Sheffield
Living in Endcliffe & Ranmoor
Sheffield 038 feels noticeably different from Sheffield's denser inner districts. Owner-occupation runs at 73%, which is high even by suburban standards, and the streets reflect it — more houses than flats, more families than sharers, and a general sense that most people who live here have chosen to stay. Greenspace is close: the nearest park or open space is roughly 380 metres away on average, and around four in ten residents are within easy walking distance of meaningful green areas.
The cost picture here sits above the Sheffield average on the property side — the median sale price is around £279,000 — but this is still comfortably below comparable suburban stretches in Leeds or Manchester, let alone southern England. Private renters make up about 23% of households, so the rental market is relatively thin, which can make finding the right property slower than in the city's more renter-heavy central areas.
Who lives here? Demographically, this is a mixed-age area, with under-18s and 18–34s each accounting for roughly 28% of the population — an unusually even spread. Degree-level qualifications are held by around 44% of residents, well above the national average, and median annual earnings sit at just under £32,000. Single-person households are more common than you might expect at about 37%, sitting alongside a steady share of families with children.
Practically speaking, the nearest mainline rail station is about 3,974 metres away in a straight line — roughly a 50-minute walk or a short drive — so most residents rely on a car. That's reflected in the numbers: nearly 36% commute by car, while only around 5% use public transport. Working from home is the dominant mode here at nearly 43% of residents.
