Violence and sexual offences dominate reports. 485 violent offences were recorded (54% of total). This level of crime reflects a high-footfall transport hub rather than a typical residential street.

The nearest is about 115m away. The median property price is £250,000, with moderate growth of 14% over five years. Based on 5 transactions recorded since 2014. Rented accommodation predominates. There are 7 schools within 2 km, 7 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 214m away.
