==Demographics== [[File:Crosspool Transmitter 111.jpg|left|thumb|120px|The Crosspool transmitter is a prominent landmark across Sheffield.]] Crosspool is a suburb with vague boundaries; it merges with the adjacent neighbourhoods of [[Crookes]], [[Fulwood, South Yorkshire|Fulwood]] and [[Ranmoor]] and has sub-districts within it such as Tapton Hill, Sandygate and Hallam Head. It has a total population of 7,070 residents in a 2006/7 [[National Health Service|NHS]] Neighbourhood Profile, just 1.3% of the population of the City of Sheffield. Other statistics bear out Crosspool's status as a middle class area with almost 87% of residents being [[owner-occupier]]s of their houses compared to the Sheffield average of 60.2%. Almost 80% of Crosspool's housing is either detached or semi-detached, again well above the average. 93.1% of Year 11 school pupils go on to further education compared to the Sheffield average of 86.8% while 38.5% of Crosspool's adults have been educated to [[Academic degree|degree]] level in contrast to the Sheffield average of 18.8%.<ref name="nhs data">[http://www.sheffield.nhs.uk/healthdata/nhoods0607/Crosspool87_0607.pdf Crosspool Neighbourhood Profile 2006/7.] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071021201817/http://www.sheffield.nhs.uk/healthdata/nhoods0607/Crosspool87_0607.pdf |date=21 October 2007 }} Gives statistics.</ref>
