Affordable to buy, but not cheap to rent. Hinckley and Bosworth offers a house price to pay multiple of 6.9x, below the East Midlands median, and a lower than regional median council tax. However, rent takes a significant 29.1% of gross median earnings, and the share of pupils in Good or Outstanding schools is below the regional average at 89.9%. Recorded crime is low, at 53.7 per 1,000. This location suits those prioritising home ownership affordability and lower crime rates over rental costs and school performance.
