Demographics
Rugeley is a former mining town and, as such, suffers from a moderate level of social deprivation. Parts of the town consist of council or ex council house stock. However, on the fringes of Rugeley housing can be considerably more expensive, particularly in Etchinghill. A large number of new houses have been built recently, notably along Hednesford Road and there are concerns that these estates represent unwanted incursions into green belt land.
