Mosaic Portrait - Experian Consumer Information Portal (experianmarketingservices.digital)

Over 150 different segments. Apparently I live in a budget generation area.
So many to choose from.
They then sell this data to marketing companies to do what they want with it.

Scattered homesteads - older households appreciating rural calm in standalone houses with agricultural landscapes.

😂This sums up literally exactly where we live, though if by 'older households' they mean 'older people' it's just us and a holiday let and we aren't older, but it absolutely sums up the area around us.

Village Retirement .... absolutely spot on for us! Pretty accurate all round for our lifestyle and location, except for the "holidays" section ..... Wouldn't be seen dead on a cruise, but otherwise ...........

Ufff.... Diamond days.😁
Obviously thanks to my husband of 20 years.

Contemporary starts.

Partly right, but the town as a whole is a real mix of quite affluent, climbing/starting out and real deprivation.

Dunno if it's Mumsnet crashing the site, but I have put in two different postcodes (mine and DPs) and Experian can't process either! But I will try again later (and send it to mates - we're all agog!) Thanks, OP. I might annoy my neighbours in the WhatsApp group as well! Snorfle.

" Budget generations" .. tbf it's pretty accurate.

Primary ambitions. It was disconcertingly accurate. Ditto my parents’ postcode, which came up as “bank of mum and dad” 😂

Premium Fortunes, asset-rich families with substantial income, distinctive expansive homes, in wealth enclaves

So my postcode says "contemporary starters" suggests high numbers of people shopping in Waitrose, have degrees and high incomes. I live in a working class town that doesn't even have a Waitrose! Albeit, probably the best area of said town.

Modern parents: busy couples in modern detached homes juggling the demands of school age children and careers.

It's pretty accurate for the area and us apart from the fact I'm a single parent!

First rung futures.

Apart from shopping in Aldi, it’s about as wrong as it could be.

Wealthy Landowners

and my son is Penthouse Chic

Both sound posh

Diamond days but should be alpha families imho. The demographic in our road has shifted a lot (elderly replaced by families) in the last two years so its probably old data.

Scattered Homesteads - has a ring of Little House on the Prairie about it.

DS rents a city centre flat and his is 'Central Pulse'

Cafes and Catchments. Sounds about right!

Did you use capital letters?

Rural Vogue
But without the long commute

Midlife Renters - nope, my own house, but I can see it might be accurate for some round here. No 'vocational' qualifications, but am grateful they only think I'm middle aged. Not impressed that they think I shop at Aldi & Lidl, or that I'm a low contributor to charities!

Uptown Elite 😎

Ooh me too, the description is spot on haha

Diamond Days. Not a surprise, we are one of a very few young families - all the other homes are much much older people. It makes for a lovely quiet area with very nice gardens :)

Diamond Days.

We're not quite in that category yet (a little too young). But it's not wrong tbh

Alpha Families 🤣🤣🤣 3-4 holidays a year? don’t know anyone around here who manages that 🤔 we sound like knobheads

Outlying Seniors. Pensioners living in inexpensive housing in out of the way locations.

Absolutly correct about the area but not me and is exactly why we need to leave.
