How Anvil Crescent, Bilston prices moved
The chart tracks the median Anvil Crescent, Bilston house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1999 to 2003. The dashed line restates each year in 2026 money, so the two lines separate exactly as much as inflation has eroded the cash figure.
| Decade | Years with sales | Median paid | In today's money |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1990s | 1 | £59,450 | £132,007 |
| 2000s | 2 | £84,950 | £154,754 |
The highest yearly median on record for Anvil Crescent, Bilston is £89,500 in 2003; the lowest is £59,450 in 1999. Across the full 5-year record the cash median has moved from £59,450 to £89,500.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £121,134, so the real change over the whole record is +39.6% — about +8.71% a year after inflation. Cash growth and real growth are not the same story, and the gap is the part most price reports leave out.
Section 02
The most recent sales
Every row is a completed sale as lodged with HM Land Registry. The right-hand column restates the price in 2026 money, which is the only fair way to compare a sale from the 1990s with one from last year.

What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Anvil Crescent, Bilston is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.
| Property type | Sales | Share | Median paid | Range |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Semi-detached | 36 | 50.7% | £87,000 | £19,500 – £212,000 |
| Terraced | 35 | 49.3% | £84,950 | £49,350 – £198,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Anvil Crescent, Bilston
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 71 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.
| Category | Sales | Share | Median paid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leasehold | 0 | 0.0% | — |
| Freehold | 71 | 100.0% | £87,000 |
| New build | 23 | 32.4% | £58,950 |
| Existing home | 48 | 67.6% | £103,500 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -43.0%. A new-build premium is normal: the buyer gets a warranty and nothing to fix, and the price is set by a developer rather than negotiated between two households.

Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across Dudley, 38.7% of 144,533 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 3.9% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.
| Energy band | Certificates | Share |
|---|---|---|
| A | 357 | 0.2% |
| B | 9,337 | 6.5% |

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Dudley at £852 a month as of Jun 2026 — £607 for a one-bedroom home and £935 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £87,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 11.75% 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 WV14, 319 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 122 violent, 18 burglary, 35 vehicle-related and 7 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 323,486 residents the 2021 census counted in Dudley, that is 0.99 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.

The 2021 census counted 323,486 residents in Dudley across 137,069 households. 66.9% of those households own their home and 32.8% rent — a split the sold record cannot show, because only owners appear in it.
19 state and independent schools have a WV14 postcode: 14 primary, 3 secondary, 1 16 plus, 1 nursery. Catchment areas do not follow postcodes, so treat this as what is nearby rather than what a child would be offered.

Within Bilston the street ranks 335 of 502 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £100,000 (-13.0%).

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Dudley at 6.8 times median local earnings of £35,281 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6.
