What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Hillhead Drive, Batley is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.

Ownership and new build in Hillhead Drive, Batley
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 69 freehold — 0.0% of the market. Tenure is not a detail: a leasehold flat and a freehold house are different assets, and mixing them into one median hides the difference.

Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across Kirklees, 38.7% of 198,495 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 4.4% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Kirklees at £780 a month as of Jun 2026 — £582 for a one-bedroom home and £864 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £137,500 here, that rent is a gross yield of 6.81% a year. It is a measured figure rather than an assumption: a real local rent over a real local price, before any cost of ownership.
Police forces publish every recorded street-level crime. Within a mile of the centre of WF17, 314 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 127 violent, 17 burglary, 11 vehicle-related and 40 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 1.9 times busier.
Against the 433,216 residents the 2021 census counted in Kirklees, that is 0.72 recorded crimes per thousand people in the month. The count covers a mile around the district centre while the population covers the whole council, so read the rate as an order of magnitude rather than a precise figure.
A count is not a rate. A district with shops and a station records more crime than a residential one of the same size, because more people pass through it. Read this next to the median, not on its own.
Section 08
The neighbourhood around Hillhead Drive, Batley
The 2021 census counted 433,216 residents in Kirklees across 177,989 households. 65.9% of those households own their home and 33.8% rent — a split the sold record cannot show, because only owners appear in it.
22 state and independent schools have a WF17 postcode: 19 primary, 2 secondary, 1 all-through. Catchment areas do not follow postcodes, so treat this as what is nearby rather than what a child would be offered.

How Hillhead Drive, Batley compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Hillhead Drive, Batley sits below that national figure — -12.7%.
Within Batley the street ranks 120 of 507 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £92,000 (+49.5%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £2,192 per square metre, across 14 of the 69 sales on record. Price per square metre is the only figure that compares a two-bed flat with a four-bed house honestly.
The full range on record runs from £34,000 to £395,000. Extremes usually mean something unusual — a plot sold without a house on it, a transfer between family members, or a very large property — so the median is the number to trust.
Hillhead Drive, Batley sits in Kirklees, in the Yorkshire and The Humber.
The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Kirklees at 6.3 times median local earnings of £33,613 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6. That number, not the price alone, is what decides whether a place is within reach of the people who work in it.

Common questions about this data
What is the average house price in Hillhead Drive, Batley?

How many homes have sold in Hillhead Drive, Batley?

When were Hillhead Drive, Batley house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £142,000, set in 2007. That is the cash figure; measured in 2026 money the peak may fall in a different year, because inflation reshapes the series.
What is the price per square metre in Hillhead Drive, Batley?
