Wages and employment commentary · Last updated August 2026

Tandridge’s labour market profile, using ONS Annual Population Survey data via Nomis and ASHE earnings, points to a comparatively well-paid local resident base. The area had a resident population of 90,322 in 2025, so these figures relate to a sizeable local market rather than a small sample.

Incomes Explain Affordability Pressure

Wage and employment data does not predict house prices by itself. It gives demand-side context: how average prices and rents compare with resident earnings, whether employment conditions support demand, and where affordability pressure may limit the buyer or renter pool.
