However, the area surrounding SW4 9SA, has a female population slightly higher than UK average, with 52.4% of residents being female. Several factors can contribute to this.

Typically, as people grow older, they tend to relocate from city center addresses to suburban areas, smaller towns, and rural locations. Consequently, these areas often have a higher number of females. A higher female population can also be found in areas with industries that employ more women, such as healthcare, education, and retail.
