FAQ

Questions, answered

Where does the data come from?

Every report is compiled from official, public UK sources — HM Land Registry, Ofsted, Police.uk, the Environment Agency, NHS, ONS, the EPC Register, Ofcom, the Food Standards Agency and Companies House, among others. Each section shows what it's based on.

How accurate and up to date is it?

AreaSense reflects the underlying official datasets and shows when the data was last updated. Public data can lag or contain gaps, so we date-stamp it and present it plainly rather than smoothing over the source.

How much does AreaSense cost?

Pricing is tailored to how you'll use AreaSense — from individual research to white-label reporting for agencies — and is being finalised during beta. Book a demo and we'll walk you through the plan that fits.

Which areas are covered?

AreaSense covers postcodes and addresses across the UK. Coverage of some datasets varies between England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland, and the report notes where a source is limited.

How is the area score worked out?

Scores summarise official metrics for a section (for example crime rates or school ratings) and are shown alongside the numbers they come from, plus a comparison to the UK average — so you can always see what sits behind a score.

Is this financial or property advice?

No. AreaSense is information to help you decide with confidence. Reports are for general information only and are not legal, financial, planning or surveying advice — always do your own due diligence before you commit.

How do I get started?

Book a demo and we'll walk you through AreaSense on your own patch, then get you set up with access that fits how you work — or email contact@areasense.co.uk.

Can estate agents brand the reports?

Yes. The Agency plan lets you white-label exported PDF reports with your own logo and details, then compare areas for clients — handy for winning and progressing instructions.
