A few localities in Leeds have seen a drastic rise in the prices of the houses. The growth has taken up to a cost of 20,000 pounds in a single year. Also, a few localities have seen a massive slump in their pricing. The property prices in Seacroft and Killingbeck has seen an enormous rise in property prices. Office of National Statistics has shed lights in the property price around Leeds for the past 20 years. Even the house prices in Ward has seen a rise of about 15% n their prices. When compared to 2014 the price rise is more than 50% in the property price in Ward. However, the price rise in Ward comes nowhere near to the price rise in the most expensive area of the town which comes out to be Harewood. Adel and Wharfedale round off the top 5 most expensive neighbourhood in the city. 

The Brighton and Hove Albion are amazed by the progress Ben White has made after moving to Leeds United on a loan move. The championship team made White the central mainstay in their defence after his summer loan move. The 21-year-old has made fantastic progress under the guidance of Marcelo Bielsa. Brighton and Hove Albion have always considered White as a player who could succeed in the first division rather than just being a championship player. 

However, the club did not expect such swift progress by the defender who is now valued at more about 20 million Pounds. Seagulls are readily waiting for White to join them in their first team as soon as he finishes his loan at the end of the season. Brighton blocked Leeds united efforts to put a clause in a contract for a permanent sign at the end of the loan move. White before this had successful loan moves with Peterborough United and Newport County.

Leeds City Council has released a new report over gambling. The report states that a problem of gambling is prevailing in the city, and it has put over 30,000 people at risk. The most at-risk people are those with low income, especially the young people and adults or older generation dealing with mental health issues. 

A new support service for the people suffering from gambling issues also opened last month in the city by the name of Leeds Gambling Clinic. The clinic opened in September. GamCare, Leeds City Council and Leeds and York Partnership NHS foundation trust collaborated for the clinic. Also under a schedule 9 agreement, the Victoria Gate Casino has partially funded the clinic. A report on how to tackle the effects of gambling and other research on gambling will go to Leeds City Council next week.
