Moving house? Or just want to get the lowdown on a neighborhood you’re eyeing?
Postcode Check acts like your personal British postcode detective. Just enter a code to get
the full picture-from crime rates and schools to property prices and internet speeds. It’s all
based on official sources-no magic involved.
Here’s what the app shows instantly:
Crime - stats and locations, plus trends over the last two years.
Schools - Ofsted ratings, distance, and actual chances of getting a place based on
catchment areas.
NHS - nearest GP, new patient availability, and A&E waiting times.
Housing prices - up-to-date Land Registry data, including averages by area and property
type.
Internet & connectivity - Full Fibre availability and speeds, plus 5G coverage.
Environment - flood risk and air quality (yes, we have that data too).
Council Tax - how much you’ll pay and how it compares to the neighborhood average.
Demographics - age, household composition, and deprivation indices.
What you can do:
Compare two or three postcodes side-by-side to see which comes out on top in each
category.
Save your favorite areas and add personal notes (e.g., "great park here," "close to Mum").
Manage your moving checklist-keep everything in one place so nothing gets forgotten.
We don’t label neighborhoods as "good" or "bad." We simply present the facts-you draw
your own conclusions.
