The postcode ST3 6BW is in the LSOA area called 'Stoke-on-Trent 028C', in the Meir North ward.

The geographical demographic data for ST3 6BW has been extracted from the Office of National Statistics, responsible for the collection and publication of UK statistics relating to population, society and economy. (ONS)
