Questions people ask
Is Sheffield safe?
Police recorded about 93.8 crimes for every 1,000 residents in the 12 months to August 2026, about the same as Yorkshire and The Humber as a whole (94.4). Figures run high in busy centres where few people live, and they can't tell you how one street feels, so visit at different times of day.
How much do homes cost in Sheffield?
Homes sold for a typical £2,760 per m² in the year to August 2026, higher than Yorkshire and The Humber as a whole (£2,500 per m²). At that rate a 70 m² two-bedroom flat would cost roughly £195,000. This is a rough guide, not a valuation.
How many schools are there in Sheffield?
There are 132 state primary and 30 state secondary schools inside Sheffield's boundary. Living nearby doesn't guarantee a place, so check each school's admissions rules.
Is Sheffield a deprived area?
35% of Sheffield's 343 neighbourhoods are among the most deprived fifth in England, and 19% among the least deprived fifth, on the official Index of Multiple Deprivation. It combines income, jobs, health, education, crime, housing and living environment.
