5 of the 300 postcodes now in use in Worsley came into use in January 2020 or later, ONS says. In the 12 months to August 2025, 8 of the 243 homes sold in Worsley were newly built (3%), HM Land Registry's records show; across the M28 district, 2%.

A new postcode is often a new street or estate, but Royal Mail also makes new postcodes when it reorganises old ones, so not every one means new homes. Only postcodes still in use are counted.

Is Worsley safe? Crime recorded around it

Greater Manchester's police force has published no crime figures to Police.uk for any month from September 2024 to August 2026, so we have none to show for Worsley. A count from Police.uk here would take in only the few crimes that neighbouring forces record nearby, so we show none rather than a figure that looks like a quiet area.
