What sits behind the figures
Prices across Clackmannanshire moved +60.8% over ten years on the UK House Price Index, and prices are at or near their highest.
Employee jobs across Clackmannanshire moved −6.2% from 2015 to 2024 (ONS Business Register and Employment Survey).
27% of the energy performance certificates lodged across Clackmannanshire's postcode districts are below band C (14,683 certificates), and 42% of privately rented homes. Clarity measures areas rather than individual homes, so this is the share of the local stock likely to need energy-efficiency work before it meets a band C standard, not a survey of any one property.
The five-year forecast quoted above (Savills, Scotland) is a regional figure for Scotland as a whole, not a forecast for Clackmannanshire, and Clarity does not rank on it.
