Combining the whole postcode region, 21% of people in LE67 are classed as having an AB social grade, (i.e. 'white-collar' middle-upper class), compared to 27% across the UK.

This does not mean that the people of LE67 are poorer than other areas, but it may give an indication that there are areas of deprivation.


The LE67 postcode primarily covers the villages of Bardon and Ibstock, located east of Leicester. It is part of the Hinckley and Bosworth district and is 26 miles from Nottingham and 33 from Birmingham.

The population of the LE67 post code as of the 2011 census was 4,735 which experienced a growth of about 11% since the 2000s. Residential areas consist of detached and semi-detached family homes with very few flats.

The average income is significantly higher than the national average, and the economic activity includes residents employed in areas such as manufacturing, retail, transport and health care. The average price for properties in this area is £302,545 which is considerably higher than the regional and national average.

There are a significant number of primary and secondary schools in the LE67 area, such as the much-acclaimed Ibstock Community College and Bardon Hill Primary School. Shopping is available in the town of Ibstock which has a selection of independent retailers, pubs, and leisure services including a football club, tennis court, and a swimming pool.

The village of Bardon, located close to the National Forest, has a selection of restaurants, cafes and pubs, as well as a selection of parks and open spaces with great scenic views. The National Forest itself is in proximity to the postcode, and it is part of a multi-million-pound project to promote and protect new generations of woodland.

The postcode has easy access to the A42 dual carriageway and the M1 Motorway, being within a half-hour drive of East Midlands Airport. There is also train access from nearby Coalville to Leicester, Nottingham and Loughborough.

One of the attractions of the area is its proximity to the larger city of Leicester, which offers a wide array of cultural activities, shopping and entertainment centres. With a gap of only 20 minutes' travel between the two locations, it's easy to sample the best of both worlds.
