For people wanting to buy their first home during a cost-of-living crisis, the price of property in their chosen area will be a key factor to consider.
So which parts of Northumberland have the most affordable homes?
Average house prices vary dramatically across the different neighbourhoods of Northumberland, according to new figures published by the Office for National Statistics (ONS).
Across England and Wales, the cheapest neighbourhoods to buy a property can largely be found in the North East, North West and Yorkshire and the Humber.
The ONS splits England and Wales into 7,202 small areas, of which 128 have median house prices of under £100,000. The cheapest place to buy a house is Horden in County Durham, where the average property will set you back just £57,500.
