Just read it all, not that accurate for this street but probably is for the surrounding ones.
Stuck in old postcode, shows up the same as blukoos one, not accurate at all

Mines very accurate, live at the seaside with retired pensioners
Often, many of the people who live in this sort of postcode will be retired home owners. These are known as type 32 in the ACORN classification and 1.02% of the UK’s population live in this type.
Seaside and rural areas are, for the most part, where the bulk of these communities are found, in particular in parts of Dorset, Devon, Sussex, Norfolk and the Isle of Wight. Here is an overview of the likely preferences and features of your neighbourhood:
Family income Low
Interest in current affairs Low
Housing - with mortgage Low
Educated - to degree Low
Couples with children Very low
Have satellite TV Medium
Most of the people in this type are over 60 and no longer work. As a result they have modest incomes but are comfortably off.
The vast majority of them own their own homes outright. Typically they live in bungalows with two or three bedrooms.
Having no mortgage to pay means these people can afford to buy a new car. They are happy to spend at least £5,000 and often more on their main car, which they take care of and put in their garages every night.
