How Heilsburg Road, Canvey Island prices moved

Median of the yearly medians in each decade.

The highest yearly median on record for Heilsburg Road, Canvey Island is £164,000 in 2007; the lowest is £40,750 in 1996. Across the full 12-year record the cash median has moved from £40,750 to £164,000.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £88,396, so the real change over the whole record is +222.6% — about +11.23% 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.

Over the last decade alone the difference is stark: +302.5% in cash against +222.6% once inflation is removed. A buyer who sold at the end of that decade would have needed the real figure, not the headline one, to know whether they had actually gained.

Ownership and new build in Heilsburg Road, Canvey Island

A further 2 transfers for this area are on the register but are left out of every figure above. HM Land Registry marks them as additional price paid entries: repossessions, buy-to-let portfolio moves, transfers between companies or family, and sales at a discount such as right to buy. They are real records but they are not open-market prices, and including them would drag the median somewhere no buyer ever paid.

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Castle Point at £1,255 a month as of Jun 2026 — £937 for a one-bedroom home and £1,417 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £153,500 here, that rent is a gross yield of 9.81% 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 SS8, 238 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 103 violent, 17 burglary, 6 vehicle-related and 45 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 1.4 times busier.

Against the 89,587 residents the 2021 census counted in Castle Point, that is 2.66 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.
