'EH4' is a
postal district for north-west
Edinburgh, and is considered to belong to the most exclusive addresses, including
Blackhall,
Cramond and
Barnton. House prices in this area of Edinburgh are considerably above the national average for a standard, suburban family home. EH4 also includes
Davidson's Mains, another affluent suburb of Edinburgh.
In a recent survey, EH4 was declared to be the most
millionaire populated Postal District in the United Kingdom.
EH4 also covers other areas such as
Clermiston and
Drylaw, areas with a higher percentage of lower income households; as well as those such as
Muirhouse and
Pilton which are among Edinburgh's most deprived areas. Among Edinburgh's postcode areas, EH4 covers a relatively large population and the presence of a number of lower-income areas within the district waters down the argument that it corresponds with the most exclusive addresses.
