How St Johns Green, North Shields prices moved

The chart tracks the median St Johns Green, North Shields house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1995 to 2022. The dashed line restates each year in 2026 money, so the two lines separate exactly as much as inflation has eroded the cash figure.

Median of the yearly medians in each decade.

The highest yearly median on record for St Johns Green, North Shields is £57,000 in 2007; the lowest is £8,500 in 1996. Across the full 28-year record the cash median has moved from £15,875 to £45,000.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £35,250, so the real change over the whole record is +47.9% — about +1.46% 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: -4.3% in cash against -32.5% 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 St Johns Green, North Shields

A further 8 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 North Tyneside at £846 a month as of Jun 2026 — £582 for a one-bedroom home and £893 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £27,500 here, that rent is a gross yield of 36.92% 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 NE29, 397 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 96 violent, 23 burglary, 19 vehicle-related and 83 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 2.4 times busier.

Against the 208,967 residents the 2021 census counted in North Tyneside, that is 1.90 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

How St Johns Green, North Shields compares

The full range on record runs from £4,500 to £366,000. 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.

St Johns Green, North Shields sits in North Tyneside, in the North East.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in North Tyneside at 5.7 times median local earnings of £37,005 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.
