About AreaIQ
The UK's most comprehensive free area intelligence platform
What is AreaIQ?
AreaIQ is a free, publicly accessible platform that aggregates data from 12+ official government sources to give you a complete picture of any UK postcode district. Whether you're buying a house, renting, or simply curious about an area, AreaIQ gives you the data you need to make an informed decision.
Our Data
All data comes from official government open data sources under the Open Government Licence (OGL). We update our data regularly to ensure accuracy.
Methodology
Safety Scores are calculated from police crime data on a 1-10 scale, where 10 represents the lowest crime rate relative to national benchmarks.
Transport Scores are based on the number and type of public transport stations within 10km, weighted by type (tube > rail > bus).
Area Scores combine safety, transport, green space and healthcare availability into a single composite score.
Property Prices are sourced from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data and cover residential transactions from 2020-2024.
