How Gala Close, Hartlepool prices moved
The chart tracks the median Gala Close, Hartlepool house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 2000 to 2007. 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2000s | 6 | £110,500 | £201,298 |
The highest yearly median on record for Gala Close, Hartlepool is £219,500 in 2005; the lowest is £88,995 in 2000. Across the full 8-year record the cash median has moved from £88,995 to £203,000.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £177,990, so the real change over the whole record is +98.3% — about +10.27% 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: +128.1% in cash against +98.3% 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.

What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Gala Close, Hartlepool 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | 136 | 98.6% | £102,995 | £79,995 – £355,000 |

Section 06
Ownership and new build in Gala Close, Hartlepool
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 138 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 | 138 | 100.0% | £103,998 |
| New build | 72 | 52.2% | £90,995 |
| Existing home | 66 | 47.8% | £204,450 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -55.5%. 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.

Police forces publish every recorded street-level crime. Within a mile of the centre of TS25, 333 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 137 violent, 27 burglary, 15 vehicle-related and 35 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 2.0 times busier.
Against the 92,338 residents the 2021 census counted in Hartlepool, that is 3.61 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.
