We are in a unique housing market: never before has the acceleration of house prices at the top of the scale left so many so far behind.

Prices in Hackney, east London, for example, have increased by a staggering 939 per cent between 1995 and 2015. Compare that to Blackpool, where that number is 100 per cent.

Savills has mapped the last 20 years of the housing market and categorised every area by its performance over the various cycles. It identifies which areas are star performers, leading the market, lagging behind, or stagnating. It also illustrates just how diverse the property market really is.
