CF5, Cardiff: Llandaff, Ely and Victoria Park

Here you'll find the official figures for CF5, a postcode district mostly in Cardiff, with part in the Vale of Glamorgan, gathered in one place: what homes sell for, the homes themselves, schools, crime and the cost of living.

There are around 27,300 homes in CF5, in places including Llandaff, Ely, Victoria Park and Fairwater. Terraced houses are the most common home to change hands here, making up just under two in five sales. Semi-detached houses come next, at about three in ten. About 14% of sales were new builds.

In the five years to August 2026, homes in CF5 sold for about £278,000 on average, up 26% on the five years before. Across Cardiff, where most of CF5 is, homes sold for about £262,000 over the same five years, so prices here are higher. Most of CF5's postcodes are outside mapped flood risk areas.

All figures come from official sources, listed at the bottom of this page.

Of the homes sold in the five years to August 2026, 39% were terraced houses, 29% were semi-detached houses, 19% were detached houses and 14% were flats. 15% were leasehold and 14% were new builds (654 sales).

32 state schools have a CF5 postcode, and 28 more are within a mile of one of its postcodes. Being near a school is not the same as being in its catchment: check admissions with the council.

Estyn, the inspectorate for schools in Wales, stopped giving schools an overall grade from spring 2022, so there is no single rating to show. Each school's inspection reports are on estyn.gov.wales.

We checked the centre of each of CF5's 1,443 postcodes against the flood risk maps from Natural Resources Wales. 1,292 sit outside every mapped area, and 151 are in one: 2 at high risk, 34 at medium risk and 115 at low risk. The centre of a postcode is not each home in it, so check an exact address on NRW's flood risk map.

• High risk from rivers: Greater than a 1 in 30 (3.3%) chance of flooding each year.
• Medium risk from rivers: Between a 1 in 100 (1%) and a 1 in 30 (3.3%) chance of flooding each year.
• Low risk from rivers or surface water and small watercourses: Between a 1 in 1,000 (0.1%) and a 1 in 100 (1%) chance of flooding each year.
• Low risk from the sea: Between a 1 in 1,000 (0.1%) and a 1 in 200 (0.5%) chance of flooding each year.

The sentence above counts each postcode once, at its highest risk. The table counts it under each source, so a postcode at risk from more than one source appears more than once.

NRW's map takes into account the effect of flood defences where it has information on them. Defences reduce the chance of flooding but do not completely stop it, as they can be overtopped or fail.
