Rhyll Sunset Strip

Rhyll (L) and Sunset Strip (L) are neighbouring areas with very different demographics. Rhyll (L) is a much older community, where the typical resident is 61 and 39.8% of people are aged 65 or over. It is also more walkable, with 89.5% of homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries. In contrast, Sunset Strip (L) is much younger, with a typical age of 37 and a far higher share of children under 15 (23.3% compared to 9.2% in Rhyll (L)). This younger profile is reflected in its family types; one-parent families make up 24.9% of households in Sunset Strip (L), while they account for only 7.1% in Rhyll (L).

Since 2011, the gap between these two areas has widened across several measures.
