Warwick
Non-metropolitan district · West Midlands, England · population ~145k · 54 state-funded schools
High pay comes with high housing costs. Warwick offers the highest median weekly earnings in the West Midlands at £934.30, but this is offset by a median house price of £366,200, a multiple of 7.5 times annual pay, and a median monthly rent of £1,237. Rent takes 30.6% of gross median earnings, which is above the West Midlands median. Council tax is also above the regional median. However, crime rates are average for the West Midlands, and deprivation is low, better than 18% of England authorities. This location suits those prioritising earning potential and lower deprivation over affordability.
