Where is this place? Can I buy a street? Is it a good holiday Cottage type area?

A lot of families and single parents, in semis and terraces living around there too.
These are large families living in semi-detached council housing.
Many families have three or more children, and half of all families are headed by a single parent. Housing is generally two or three bedroom council semis and terraces.
Incomes are very low and a fifth of families feel in need of a loan. Unemployment levels are among the highest of any type, being double the national average. Where there is paid work, it tends to be routine jobs in nearby factories or shops. Travel to work is on foot or by public transport. Car ownership is very low.
There is little money for fashion shopping. Cheaper clothing is bought from discount stores and supermarkets.
Leisure activities include fishing, betting, listening to music and cookery, although take-away and fast food are consumed more than average. Magazines such as OK! or Bella and newspapers like The Sun, Daily Mirror, and Daily Star are all relatively popular reading.

I think Carl has demonstrated why people shouldnt ever fill in surveys on the off chance of winning a holiday/microwave etc.....

I just put the postcode in the link into upmystreet.com. What I'm saying is that when you post an autotrader link, always make sure you hack the postcode bit off the end of it. 
This link is equivalent, and has no personal information in it:

Although Mr Manchester's location looks OK to me: plenty of green space around it:
