How this area has changed

Typical prices for flats, now and in years gone by. The twelve months to September 2026 against the same twelve months back then.

Area	Now	5 years ago	10 years ago	15 years ago	20 years ago
Union Square	–	Not enough sales	Not enough sales	Not enough sales	Not enough sales
Postcode sector WA5 3	£149,950	£125,000 +20% since	£111,000 +35% since	Not enough sales	£135,000 +11% since

The typical price is the middle sale of the twelve months, not the average, so one very dear or very cheap sale cannot pull it about. Standard sales only. A figure needs at least 15 sales behind it; with fewer, it says so.

Sector WA5 3 Warrington Typical price each year, flats. A gap is a year with too few sales.
