Site Summary: Up My Street

This site is a useful resource for those comparing local and regional contrasts. At a basic level it offers by town name or post code a comparison in property prices and a limited number of statistics. It is a useful way to contrast the rich and poor places within a small area or on a national scale. The data could be used to teach pupils spreadsheet and data presentation skills.
