The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Chichester at £1,326 a month as of Jun 2026 — £942 for a one-bedroom home and £1,498 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £241,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 6.60% 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 PO9, 384 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 198 violent, 12 burglary, 12 vehicle-related and 36 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 2.3 times busier.

Against the 124,068 residents the 2021 census counted in Chichester, that is 3.10 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

Whichers Close, Rowland's Castle sits in Chichester, in the South East.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Chichester at 12.3 times median local earnings of £33,692 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6.
