House prices sit in the middle of the local market — cheaper than Allt-yr-yn but pricier than Gaer. Terraced homes are the most common option here.
Your day-to-day costs work out below the UK average, thanks to lower transport and council tax bills. Schools are close by, including St Woolos Primary in the neighbourhood, and there are university options for older students too. Crime figures have been falling steadily since 2024.
Health and social care is the biggest employer in the area. Nearly a third of residents work from home, which makes Stow Hill ideal if you're after a well-connected, walkable base for both work and family life.
